It’s a beautiful rainy day down here in south Arkansas. One of those days you just don’t want to be at work at 5am but you have to in order to eat next week.
Snow almost kills us last week, rain almost floods us out this week, but you know what? It’s still a beautiful day.
Y’all have a Blessed day!
The rain patters down on the old tin roof,
With every hit, echos in my head.
Echos in my sleep
Echos in the deep,
And echos without end
So I went to the gym last night with my buddy, @joshuat8458458 last night. We decided to put ourselves into as much pain as possible and do over 240 reps of bicep exercises and over 130 reps of tricep exercises. After it was all said and done, after the pain subsided, the burning faded, i have to say I feel the growth already. It was hard, it was taxing, it was definitely time consuming, but it will be worth it to be able to look into the mirror and see a man staring back at me that is in shape and loving it.
Yall be safe and have a blessed day!!
I really hope in my lifetime we have human living on Mars. That would be crazy for science fiction!
He ran, jumping old tree remnants that have fallen. Running faster, jumping farther he kept pushing on. He was sure by his next step he would get hit something. Anything could be thrown to hit him and and knock him for his course, and he knew what was chasing him had the ability to throw objects very fast. Getting away was all he could hope to do. Running. Jumping. Dodging…… All came naturally to him and he did them well. Even as far as he’s gone already, he knew he could go on countless times past that. His breathing would be a little more than resting if not for the ever present fear of getting caught or hit.
Running. Jumping. But not dodging. This time his misstep cost him, but only with a slap from a low hanging branch like the ones he would have to pick for his mom when he got in trouble for not picking up his trash in his bedroom. As the little droplets of blood slid down his check he started remembering where he was. There are landmarks everywhere when you’ve played woods your whole life. He couldn’t get to hopeful now but he was almost there.
Just a few more steps and he’s be out of the woods. Home. Safety was there with his mother and father. Both together would save him from this foul situation he has found himself in, on his own accord. It’s true. This was his fault but he’s just a kid and can’t shouldn’t be expect to save him from monsters twice his size.
Yes! Out of the woods. Now across the yard he goes. Feet faster. Breathing heavy. Sweat pouring. Muscles aching. Suddenly pain was all he felt. Severe pain, making his entire left leg hurt. He was hit and he knew it. The force of the impact on his upper hamstring bruised his leg instantly and knocked him to the ground causing countless other pains from the fall. He lay face down in the the grass he knew so well. This was his yard. He almost made it and now it’s over.
As the pain slowly died down, IT stood over him, panting and wheezing. Then it kicked him in the side and said “next time you hit me in the back with something I’m going to whoop your ass and throw you out our bedroom window….punk.”
Through the vines it creeps and crawls, Into my thoughts it seeps and claws. Will i be able to write the things it wants? or will i forget because how hard it gnaws? after all, forgetting, is a flaw. Dont hate me if i forget the reasons i am here, For forgetting would certainly be my worst of fears. I know there is something i must say, Ill say it now when my mind is free and clear. For i fear forgetting is getting oh so near. The day will come when you will see I'm gone Just know that in my mind my evening dawned.
So my people, I was thinking at the gym during my workout just now. The Transfer of Knowledge, should be a great milestone of existence yea? I mean knowledge, and the retention and the usage of knowledge, is a major component of civilization yea? We pass things down from generation to generation but why? Do we hope it will make life easier down the road for someone? Do we do it just because its what we do? I mean it is automatic yea? You may learn something from someone who does not really intend for someone to learn what he is doing. So just the simple act of being human gives us some innate right to learn whatever we choose to learn.
With technology the way it is today, we can teach anyone around the world whatever we wish. I love this idea. I have a fascination of languages. Duolingo is wonderful for dabbing into languages from beginners to experts. I highly recommend it if you ever just wanna learn a bit hear and there. No commitment, no money if you dont want to.
Learning is so much fun when we enjoy it. Ya be good and have a Blessed day.
So today for the gym im doing a thing. To backup a bit, my diet sucks. I have a bad problem of eating too much, just like the majority of America. My only saving grace is that i have a super effective and taxing workout ethic. It also doesn’t hurt that my job is very stressful on my body. So, today im going to try something. I will eat these little tuna packets before and after my workout. They are very filling and packed with protein. Protein is not essential pre-workout, but post-workout protein is key. These tuna packet come in many flavors and are really only high in Sodium. So in closing, if you need a quick snack packed with protein for about a dollar, these are great!
Let me know what your favorite/essential snacks are that yall eat to be just that much healthier!! Have a blessed day yall!!!
So I started buying crypto about a week ago after doing some research. I was being curious about if any of you had any thoughts on that. I know we all want to have enough money to buy everything we need and most things we want, so what are y’all’s thoughts on crypto?!
During this big ice/ snow storm the South got last week, I picked up my ukulele my wife got me for Christmas years ago, for the first time…meaningfully, with the intent on learning something. I love it! It’s such a small instrument and I am on the large side of things, or closer to large than I am to small or petite.
The sound, the size, the music and the history fascinate me. My specialty has always been brass instruments, mainly trombone, baritone, and tuba. The Uke is my first string instrument and I got to say I never imagined strumming and singing was so difficult. I mean I can’t sing anyways but even trying to hum the tune and play makes my hand strum every direction but down. It’s rediculous.
