Anonymous asked: do you weigh yourself?

on occasion yes. 

and being 100% truthful i usually weigh myself to make sure my weight hasnt dropped. 

however i moved to a point in my life where i realize the number on the scale is not something i should or need to fixate on. this is the heaviest i have ever been in my life, and the best i have felt since before my eating disorder.

98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.

though a well recognized fixture around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living entirely off his monthly state pension of 80 euros and the kindness of others.
