First of all, I want to compliment you on taking a stand toward trying to make a difference.  Your efforts are greatly appreciated and I just wanted to let you know that I fully support your cause.  Too often I have been told to lose weight, or overlooked, or ridiculed because of my physical appearance.  I have been overweight for nearly half of my life (when I was young I was quite skinny) and due to the media and public opinion I have felt left out and uncomfortable with who I am.  I would like you to pass on the following message if possible:

           

True beauty is not found in the way we look, but in the actions that we do.  If we are kind to others in our thoughts, actions and words, then our true beauty expands the limitations of our appearance; and our image will last longer in the minds of the people we help, rather than in the people we please by sight with our frail, skinny bones.

 

I hope that this belief aids your cause.  The cake was delicious, and I’m glad that I ate it!
