Bodies have always seemed ugly to me.
Bodies with their meters of skin, guts, meat and their weird smells, colors, bumps, and illnesses that can't be controlled.
Bodies are ridiculous and awkward.
Media try to pretend bodies are sexy and alluring when they're in bed but they're sweaty. Sticky. Scared of failure. Even more awkward, when sprawled in bed you try to find the best position to love, after a cramp in your leg.
Bodies are nothing more than tons of muscles wrapped in the clothes you wear to try and look cuter than you really feel.
At what extent does your heart dress your partner's body of beauty when you make love? At what extent do you dress your own body of beauty when you see yourself with your eyes, or when you see yourself reflected in the lusting eyes of your partner?
How are bodies enfolded by the substance of the soul?

This includes your body, too, Ishtar , do you realize?

Dear Ishtar
I respect your point of view about bodies and the way they are shown through the media . I can say that you are right about your gloomy reaction toward what is going on . But it isn't the human body , which , we out to blame .
The media have had deformed the meaning of the human body by exposing it on beds and sheets and driving people to be mad monster looking for their lust .
We must stand in the middle of the road and balance what we are getting through the windows of our eyes . Ishtar human beings have the most perfect and complete bodies among all the creatures . This is clear around us through all their achievements buildings and monuments were built by their flexible magnificent bodies . So , bodies aren't for lust only. , even our desirs are part of our existence but unlike other creatures human beings can't show these behaviors in public . They need to go back to their spiritual roots as well .
My mother always says that she thinks the human body is a beautiful creation made by god. For her, the body is a miraculous and perfect machine.
And since I'm a little pessimistic (or maybe cynical), I tend to see things different.
But I understand your point very well. We have complex bodies that carry our souls around and allows us to exist comfortably.
Hola Ishtar, the body needs the soul. The soul needs the body. I like them both. How are you doing my respected lovely lady? I hope you stay safe. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! I'm ok, being careful. I hope you are Ok too!
