Deze post vond ik op Facebook en moest ik met jullie delen.
A fitness center posted this ad stating:
“This summer, what do you want to be? Mermaid or Whale?”
A woman sent them an email response like this:
“Yesterday I saw an ad with a photo of a sculptural girl in a bikini and the phrase from this summer. What will you be? Mermaid or Whale?
Answer: Whales are surrounded by friends.
Whales have an active sex life, get pregnant and have beautiful babies. Whales suckle. Whales are out there roaming the seas and getting to know interesting places like Antarctica and the coral reefs of Polynesia. Whales have dolphin friends. Whales eat shrimp. Whales throw jets of water and play a lot. Whales are huge and have almost no natural predators. Whales are well settled, they are BEAUTIFUL and they are LOVED. On the contrary, mermaids DO NOT EXIST … If they did, they would live in an existential crisis: Am I a fish or a human being? Mermaids have no children because they kill men who are enchanted by their beauty says the tales. Their reproduction would be like fish, without physical contact, without love. They are beautiful, but they always live sad and alone … Dear academy, I prefer to be a whale. ”
Accept who you are, the way you feel most comfortable with, don’t allow trends or society to define how beautiful you are, it’s important to keep healthy but it’s also important that we embrace equality and LOVE… Feel proud of your curves because those who really matter in our lives are the ones who care about your character, values and spirit.
So my question to you is, what would you like to be: a mermaid or a whale?
Take care!
