My body…
My body has challenged me
My body has betrayed me
My body has surprised me
My body has disappointed me
My body has been strong
My body has been broken
My body has been admired
My body has been shamed
My body has been unfaithful
My body has been defiled
My body has been healed
My body is resilient
My body is vulnerable
My body is flawed
My body is powerful
My body is aging
My body is an adventure
My body is…
My body has been abused
My body has been redeemed
My body infuriates me
My body gives me hope
My body doesn’t recover like it used to
My body amazes me
My body dances with my wife
My body embraces my sons
My body hugs my mother
My body is a temple
My body is a failure
My body is a compass…
And everything I try to do with my body, is a guide and a master and a servant
My body is a compass…
It reminds me what I am capable of and what I am not
My body is a compass…
It gives me direction and purpose
My body is a compass…
And when I listen carefully to my body, and I lead my body, my body is my champion
