The best artists steal

Everyone read this. Now.  Cassie, you can give me a zero on this assignment since it's not all my original work.

This isn't about sex or hawtness.  It's about love.  Loving your body.  Loving your stomach, your breasts, your crooked nose, your penis, your chest hair, your mind, your heart.  Loving yourself.  Loving the minds and hearts and bodies of everyone around you.  Because it all starts with you.  Love and you.  You and love.  You and love holding hands and skipping down the street even if other people laugh.  It's a beautiful relationship, but like all relationships, it takes a lot of work to perfect and understand.

I linked to my best friend's blog because it really resonated with me, and I know it will resonate with somebody else.
Sex and candy and love, love in all of its forms.  But especially love for yourself.  Even for that crooked nose.  Because that's where everything starts.  How can you love anyone else if you don't love the person you know best?
