Half of me loves it....everyone should be ok with who they are, right? Everyone should be happy and no one deserves to be made fun of due to their physical appearance. BUT....the other half of me hates it, because it is NOT OK to be obese. That's not me trying to hurt someone's feelings....I'm legitimately worried about the health of a good portion of the population. It's an epidemic, and campaigns such as "big is beautiful" is glorifying obesity, whether that is the original intent or not.
I love everyone...well, most everyone. I just want you all to live long, healthy, happy lives, and being overweight can prevent that.
I am glad it is not just me.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
