I came across this video three years ago, and it seems timely to share it now. Summer is upon us here in the tropics, and I have heard more than one friend comment on getting their ‘beach body’ ready.
I have the sensitivities of a granny when it comes to beach wear (which increases with age, I am afraid). Internally, I cringe when I see my sisters in Christ in swimsuits that I would never let my (for the moment, hypothetical) daughter wear in public. When they talk about beach excursions, I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of swimwear they’ll be using. I silently pray that they will be reminded of how they should treat and expose (or rather, not expose) their bodies.
Society has so programmed us to be desensitised to modesty and propriety in dress. Bikinis are normal, even to the Christian woman. But they shouldn’t be.
I’m happy to see ladies such as Jessica Rey are giving women options on what to wear to the beach.
ContentEd. It's both a title (short for content editor) and a descriptor (being satisfied in life).
I focus on brand-building content strategy in the digital space. I have a never-ending booklist and I consume varied content on a daily basis. My habit of hoarding information helps me pick other people's brains over tea. I enjoy meeting people and have a knack for asking the right questions. My secret (yet uncapitalised and unmonetised) skill is leading others towards personal epiphanies.
I've written a self-published book on content marketing for a boutique digital marketing agency. Once in a while, I appear in social media to talk about the online world. My latest book project is on mental illness and the Christian community. Some of the my blog entries may make it to another book about singleness in the not-so-near future.
Because life is short and the days are long, I also have a weekly podcast.
