CHINES
E FOOD.
during one of the lowest points
in my eating
disorder; a few weeks before hospitalization:
my mother brough chinese food home for dinner.
chinese food had always been my favorite, but
my eating disorder wouldn't let me eat anything
that "fatty" so my mother and i got in a fight.
after silently sitting at the end of the table
waiting for everybody else to finish their
food, my mother reached for the fortune cookie
and tossed it to me. she asked me if i wanted
it.
i threw it back to here and screamed, "NO!"
she knew i would put up a fight otherwise, so
she said, "fine, i'll eat it - but the
fortune is yours."
she cracked open the cookie and read what
was inside.
"NEVER GIVE UP, THE
BEGINNING IS ALWAYS
THE HARDEST."
on the back of the cookie where it gives a
word/phrase to learn in chinese, the phrase
was:
TO EAT.
now here i am, 6 months later,
and in recovery.
The fortune cookie was right.
NEVER
GIVE UP, THE BEGINNING IS
ALWAYS THE HARDEST.
Well done.Im proud < 3
and *her instead of here,
oh well...typos keep life interesting (:
I will always love you.
I always will.
Sincerely,
Thank you for saving this beautiful girl
