Bodies are cool
Nobody asked, but this weekend is Mayday, aka pole dance for a fertility god aka more than that to some ppl I guess but anyway it’s got me thinking about how God made bodies and Spring and burgeoning energies of all sorts and it’s ok to want your person and to love your own person and dance over fires/broomsticks or gyrate around a tree, but you don’t have to if you don’t want to — and, if you Do, then, know that you are still good. You don’t have to appease anyone to earn aliveness or belovedness. Behold, God saw all that God had made, and it was good. And it’s ok to feel good.
Pictured is an almost unrelated kids’ book I found at the library today. Highly recommend!
