When the day comes that we realize, without a shred of distraction or denial, that we are here... in this experience of life... IN A BODY, one of a few things can happen.  

We can press the mute button and deny all the parts that we don't like.  
We can crank the volume & overly identify with the parts that we do like.
Or we can learn to play with all of it... grow,  learn, heal and have some fun.

SOMA, coming from the greek, means BODY.   And the rumor spreading around these parts is that this body thing is pretty much the most miraculous thing going.   Yes, miraculous.  Like it's something more than a lump of flesh.  Full of simple & intricate complexities; only a sliver of which we actually understand.  A wisdom keeper we are finally remembering how to engage in conversation.   It borders on magic.

And we all have one... to experiment with as we choose.   
That's a pretty generous gift.
