'Rejoice,' the letter said..
"I would not exchange the laughter of my heart for the fortunes of the multitudes; nor would I be content with converting my tears, invited by my agonized self, into calm. It is my fervent hope that my whole life on this earth will ever be tears and laughter."
- Kahlil Gibran

6. Perfectly Unperfected Program, the non-profit arm of Healthy is the New Skinny
I spent two full hours perusing the website’s videos, blogs, and articles. I love this message. As much as people deny it, or don’t really see the value, body image is so utterly important but the mass media has distorted the image of ‘beauty’ so much that there have to be such campaigns as Dove’s “Campaign for Real Beauty.” Why do we need campaigns that tell us to love ourselves? Shouldn’t we already know that?
Like 99% of the girls I know, I suffer from body-conscious weight issues, too. So today (and everyday), love.your.curves.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lwftb8ykua1qa0xhbo1_1280.jpg)

even though loving ourselves should be something we already know, there are infinite numbers of campaigns out there telling us the exact opposite, that we’re missing something, are somehow deficient as what we currently have and are.
