“Life is short, so don’t waste time by hating a body that has been more than a gift.” — Jessamyn Stanley
(Our first quote from Ms. Stanley. Welcome to the Cryptoquote Club! Flexibility is all well and good. I’d love to be half as flexible as her. But, it shouldn’t be a matter of hating your body versus loving your body. Our bodies are mechanical marvels. But, we need to be mindful of undue wear and tear. Living however long, with weight induced joint problems, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes, is a poor trade off for having a “positive body image”, in my opinion. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

I hadn’t heard of Ms. Stanley before this puzzle. I’m now glad for the opportunity to Google her and appreciate her message.
The Crypto-folk like grace us with lesser known authors, from time to time. It helps to keep us on our toes!

I didn’t realize Jessamyn was a real woman and not some Hollywood waif. Whatever size she is, I wish I could be that limber. Good on her !
