Your Body Is Amazing !

Your body is amazing! Now...before you get it twisted like your DNA helices I wanna make sure that you are hearing me clearly! Because your ears are amazing & not because of those expensive earrings but because you can hear me! You can hear the vibrations of my throat produces & translated into information. Your brain can understand! Your brain is amazing! A massive & intricate control system that thinks, processes, stores, and analyses in a millionth of a second. Your brain contains every dream, every memory & every failure that you ever had! Your eyes are amazing too! Because they adjust & apply color to your world automatically distinguishing between light & dark! Blinking every once in a while to keep your eyes clean. So why? Why do you tear up at your latest tragedy or heart break? Because even if you'd think you've had a heart break, your heart actually hasn't broken yet because its been pumping all day and all night since you were an infant until the day you die fighting to keep you alive! 

See...I hate the mirror sometimes because it only gives half of the story! It'll never give a reflection of white blood cells tirelessly fighting off an overgrowth of bacteria & ceiling off the area exactly, instead, you'll just see a white head and some acne! See...when you look in the mirror, what did you grow up believing was beautiful. Did you believe that your Barbie doll's body was amazing! Sorry to say, but underneath that plastic smile you will find plastic arteries & plastic veins, heartless figurines' created by heartless companies creating fictionalized fairytales of what's beautiful! What's beautiful...is that one second your lung takes a rest before you take your next breath! What's beautiful...is each of the contracting muscles that pull the tips of your lips back enough until you smile. What's beautiful...is how hard your spine works to keep your body up right! So...the next time your souls in defeat asks the soles of your feet, what it feels like to be stepped on your whole life? So is there any question that your body is amazing?! Not because your shapes, your sizes or your skin complexion! But because Allah has allowed it to work. Now that is perfection!
