I am a solid investment with substantial returns.
I’m the luxury model with bonus features.
Extra options and big benefits
come standard with me.
Perhaps you know a solid woman.
She faces everything
with strength and stamina,
courage and intelligence,
honor and dignity.
She turns small opportunities
into generous results.
Chances are,
the substantial value
that she returns
to everyone in her life
has nothing to do
with her weight or her size.
Maybe this solid, substantial woman is you!
Perhaps you know a woman with luxurious features.
Her hair, her skin, her smile, her breasts, her eyes.
Everything about her seems like a special bonus,
from the way she looks to the way she laughs.
Chances are,
the qualities that make her so special
have nothing to do
with her weight or her size.
Maybe this luxuriously wonderful woman is you!
Perhaps you know a woman with talents and skills,
accomplishments and milestones
she achieved through hard-work and practice.
Chances are,
her “extra” abilities
have nothing to do
with her weight or her size.
Maybe this extra-ordinary woman is you!
And perhaps you know a woman
whose very presence brings big,
huge,
over-sized
enormous benefits
to the lives of everyone who is lucky enough to know her.
Chances are,
these big benefits
have nothing to do
with her weight or her size.
Maybe this big, solid, substantial, extra-special woman is you!

What “extra options” and “bonus features”
make you the “luxury model” woman?
What “substantial returns”
do you give back to the world?
What are your “big benefits”?

Oh Elizabeth…how I wish you could turn your beautiful artwork into greeting cards
(I asked before but thought a new prompt might help to bring that to fruition
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE everything you draw & write
Sincerely
Jen
Dear Jen, thanks for the encouragement and suggestion!
I have a big family and a full-time job teaching, but
this summer, when I am on break from teaching, I hope to put together some products to buy, including cards, an updated eBook version of More to Love, (and a children’s book is in the works too! Amanda’s Big Dream) I do have some mini-poster prints here too.
thanks again for telling me : )
Your posts and art are always so uplifting. Whenever I get discouraged with my weight, I need to come here for a reality check. My weight and appearance are only one small aspect of who I am, and not even the most important one.
thank you! : )
