I'm so tired of seeing these come across my feed. "How to make your mommy pooch dissappear", "How to blast that stubborn cellulite forever. "SO MANY ads are programmed to bombard me to shame my body for having kids.

Why not, "Activities outdoors to do with your kids," "How to try new things for moms who feel cut off from the world"?

Stop making me feel shameful and insecure. I know how to do that already. What if we changed our culture to one that focused on getting moms back into learning how to connect with their identities as women and helped them do it knowing they have very little income or energy? Is there a yoga studio that checks to see if you are in therapy and have kids? Maybe they'd offer a discount so you can still participate without feeling guilty.

Can we get stuff like that? Or are moms bound to feel cut off from the world unless it has a drive-through and play place? And are we supposed to strive only to get our bodies back? And not our souls and feelings of autonomy?

Can't we teach men and future generations that after baby bodies are beautiful?

Probably not. There's no money in kindness.

I like people who begin by blurting out something overly personal. I like people who aren’t afraid to walk around with a stain on their shirt. I like people who ugly laugh at their own jokes. I like people who give compliments to strangers in the grocery store and make friends when they’re washing their hands in the bathroom.

I like people who get passionate about ideas and excited about others’ success stories. I like people who live a little outside of the box, who march to the beat of their own drum, and who make it a mission to help those around them.

I like people who own their failures, and apologize easily. I like people who know who they are deep down inside, and let that person shine like crazy. I like people who tell the truth. I like people who can joke often and don’t take themselves too seriously.

I like people who love life so much they don’t make room for drama or petty behavior, only more love. I like people who like people. I like people who like books, and stupid tv shows, and who throw simple parties with pizza and paper plates.

I like people who stop by just to say hello, and bring your favorite Sonic drink with them. I like people who have their own opinions, but aren’t threatened by you having your own opinion as well.

I like people who laugh at their un-washed hair and admit when they forgot to brush their teeth. I like people who share all their favorite recipes, and let you try their favorite makeup before you buy it, and brag about getting their dress from the clearance rack.

I like people who ask for help. I like people who show up. I like people who don’t feel the need to show off. I like people who don’t pick up before you come over, and people who don’t pick fights where fights don’t belong.

I like people who say “bring whoever you want.” I like people who build bigger tables, and greet every single person with a warm hello, as if they have been best friends for years.

I like people whose eyes get bright when they talk about their passions, and people whose voice gets louder when they sing their favorite song. I like people who build businesses and who build up everyone around them.

I like people who aren’t perfect.
I like people who aren’t cool.
I like people who aren’t trying to keep up with everyone else.
I like people who aren’t trying to be someone they were never made to be.

I like people who are so real it hurts and it makes other people uncomfortable.

I love all people, but man, there’s a special place in my heart for the messy ones.

Love,
Amy Weatherly ❤️
