Welcome to Gaia! ::

The more I think, the more I feel I learn.

My body is not me. My body does not work on it's own, my body alone cannot fend off predators and my body will never know what is best for it. I am my body's keeper. I tell it what to do and where to do it. I am in charge of keeping it in tip top shape and I am the one who can let it degrade.

Do I not clean my paint brushes after use?
Do I not fix my bike when it's broken?
Would I not put my companion animals on a more stringent diet if their eating habits became bad for them?

I have been a bad keeper of my body. I have let it fall into disrepair, however, this is fixable.

My body is a tool, and a tool I shall treat it as. And we shall see where that brings me. For my mind can only go places as long as my body is fit to take it there.
