A
Balanced Life
THERE'S MORE TO LIFE!
written by Dan Burley
As
much as we want you to look your best and lose weight,
there's much more to life than weight loss and body image.
It's important to know how to eat properly and to educate
yourself in a healthy lifestyle. No doubt you will feel
better about yourself as you lose weight and get to your
desired weight, but is appearance and image everything?
The
person inside your body is most important to develop. That
person has feelings, talent, love and an abundance of
creative ideas. The person you really are is wrap up in your
soul. It's the real you. Your body is the frame or image
that people see first.
So
you're not Ms. America with a knockout figure. Does that
de-value the person inside? Of course not! Living a healthy
lifestyle means focusing on the person inside as well as
outside.
Strive to be a beautiful person inside and out by taking
care of your body which is the temple God gave us. Too much
emphasizes on the body is not healthy. If your self worth is
wrap up in your weight or what you ate last night, you're
destine to be a miserable person. There's more to life than
body image and appearance.
It
takes work and sacrifice to lose weight but you can enjoy
the process by maintaining balance. Set days aside for
eating your favorite meal with the family or taking that
special person out to eat and don't worry about fat and
calories.
Have
you ever met an attractive person that you really liked,
only to find out later that he or she was a jerk? Like the
old saying goes, "beauty is skin deep" so the person inside
must grow and develop.
Be
thankful for what you have. Do you have a job, house,
spouse, car, children, friends, food to eat, nice bed to
sleep in, television or credit card? If you have half these
things, consider yourself bless because the majority of the
world's population would love to trade places with you.
Develop yourself by investing in others. Ask yourself what
you can do to help better another person’s life. Develop
into the person you want to be by educating yourself and
taking care of family and friends. Laugh more, pray more,
take more chances in life and above all, realize that God
designed us for a special purpose. Our mission in life is to
find that special purpose and develop our God-given talents.
Life is more than
losing weight and fitting a certain image. So put your life
in proper perspective and don't make appearance the main
focus. Take care of your mind, soul and body. Seize the
moment and take firm hold of the responsibilities placed
before you. At the end of your life, God will not ask how
many pounds you lost.
