Just Be And You Are

Our desire for change is rooted in wanting something we don't think we have. Change is assumed to be an event, not a process. A better body for example is a prevalent theme in American culture. We can all be thinner or stronger. Regardless of health benefits, aesthetics takes precedence. If change is an event, a pill for weight loss or muscle gain does the trick. From one day to the next, you're a new you. Marketing campaigns barely run on more. If change is a process, the body you see in the mirror and the body you want are one and the same. It's just a matter of time. We are but versions of another self waiting to happen.
