Inspiration

Deciding to bare myself for the benefit of others was not a snap, overnight decision.

I've been building up to this. I was finally pushed over the edge by this article:

Reading this article led me to the blog BareToBush, which isn't for everyone, let me tell you (NSFW). I'm not sure what it was about that article that made me think "I'm going to post naked pictures of myself on the internet", but that was the final push.

I also read a lot from Jes, The Militant Baker. I think if I lived in Tuscon, we would totally be buds. She's super awesome.

There are a lot of really great people out there, advocating loving yourself as you are for who you are. The world needs people like that. There are so many people waiting to tear us down and break us apart. We need not cheer them on and we certainly don't need to be one of them.
