Quote

There are 86,400 seconds in a day & in EVERY one of them— your body's been striving, working hard to keep you safe and alive. So, maybe...instead of criticism, give it a little love. Some sunshine, a nutritious meal. Or a guilt- free nap & a glass of clean water. It's a nice way to say "thank you."
