My body
I never knew what it felt like to be skinny. From as far back as i remember i was always overweight. I remember in year 4, being only 9 years old, we were doing a weight chart as a class. The teacher asked us to weigh ourselves in front of the whole class so we could add it to our chart and see what the average weight in our class was. I can't even describe the nerves i was feeling. I knew i weighed more than most of my classmates. The thought of everyone knowing my weight absolutely horrified me. The average weight of my fellow female classmates was 30kg. i weighed 45kg. To my greatest relief however, the teacher did say that if you don't want to get weighed, then you don't have to. Nevertheless, i'm sure my classmates knew exactly why I told the teacher straight away that i don't want to get involved.

Thought On Life.
Negative thoughts may go beyond infinity, with regard to the depths of the ocean, the depths of the earth, the depths of the sky that may rise to infinity. But true life's thoughts change the person's life more towards positivity. Good thoughts make our life simpler and more realistic. Life is easy and sweet, if your mind is at the speed of God, whether it's your tutor, mother or father (all of these are living gods who operate in a selfless way).
