Rec | REMEMBERING YOUR BODY

🫂

i tend to forget my body not in a neglectful way but in a running purely on autopilot way. but remembered that the skin around my fingers peels as seasons change and how it feels when you lie down after a long day and all your weight just sinks into the mattress. got a scrape on my knee after cycling for the first time in months. ran my fingers on my arms just to feel the hairs there. made lunch because i wanted to nourish my body and not because i should be eating a certain number of meals a day. idk, we‘ve been bestowed these physical forms to use on earth and as fun as it can be to envision ourselves as just Ideas or Characters™️, let’s not forget our bodies and the beauty they hold!!

little bruises and scrapes

hear me out on this one - i got a bit lost on a walk recently and ended up getting caught in a rosebush, and later that day ended up skinning my knee in a race against some friends because i was going downhill way too fast (i won so all is fair in love and war i guess) and just. something about getting childish minor injuries like scraped knees and bruises and scratches from little misadventures makes me feel so nostalgic? i feel like a five year old girl climbing trees and falling out of them again. i kind of miss it.

remembering

little details, random smells that aren't really there, small specs of life ripping you out of the current moment and washing over you with such intensity that it gets hard to breathe

forgetting

sometimes it’s nice to forget. and then you remember! often times it’s like a pleasant surprise that life throws at you when you remember. like when i forgot where i put my glasses the other day and then i remembered! on my shelf! it makes me feel a little more real.
