Posting to remind myself why I need the gym…
My darkness shows up uninvited.
Sits down like it lives here.
I didn’t even give it a key.
Sure didn’t even say hello.
Very rude.
Very confident.
Very annoying.
Some days I win.
Some days I say, “alright girl… we try again tomorrow.” 🤪
My darkness and I argue from time to time,
but I don’t let it drive me anymore.
It sits in the back seat now…
Quiet, awkward, and no playlist control.
No touching the GPS either because clearly its life choices are questionable.
Meanwhile I’m up front…
running on caffeine, sarcasm, protein, and blind determination.
Healing loudly.
Lifting heavy.
Crying occasionally.
Thriving chaotically.
And honestly?
That still counts as winning.
In a tired, messy, blessed, “one mental breakdown away from a PR” kind of way… but winning nonetheless. 🖤💪🏻
So if anyone needs me this week…
I’ll be at the gym fighting demons, avoiding cardio, and pretending my pre-workout is a personality trait after taking way too many weeks off. 🤪💀
