At times, life can get a little sticky.When you find yourself in a gooey mess, perhaps it is time to sweetly embrace the simple things. Take a deep breath, smell some hyacinths on a spring day, soak in a bubble bath, laugh with friends. or taste some comfort food. For some, simply allowing oneself to eat is a sticky mess that must be avoided at all costs. Forget about actually experiencing the sweet delight of food. Anorexia takes the ‘fun’ out of food
Here is one girl’s courageous rediscovery of life’s simple pleasures. They are out there. You just have to be open to a little stickiness and if it overflows, you can always lick your fingers and say, “I would rather get a little messy, than to hold back striving for unattainable perfection.” Let the syrup flow where it may, sticky as it may be, I won’t let it get in my way.
