Something about making changes makes us face our demons, big and small. Like padme and her Starbucks, I've got mine. No booze, no chocolate, no disgustingly fatty "comfort" foods for September, hopefully longer. Not changing is easy; do nothing. Things will generally get worse, but it's easy in the short term. Alternatively, changing means you have to identity and face down your personal demons, your worst weaknesses and faults. It is the opposite of easy; but I'm starting to feel that for every demon, there's a personal Angel on the other side you have to find too, and THAT will get you there, to your goal, whatever it is.My angels to battle my demons? The look in my slave's eye when she's happy, she needs me (or so it makes me feel good to think so, to feel needed), my children's hugs, they need me around too; the sunrise reminding me there is a new tomorrow, the sunset reminding me nothing is forever, so make it a great life. I'm sure if we all look we can find angels to battle our demons, big and small.
Did 30 minutes in the gym today; felt so good to feel so tired afterwards. The nobility isn't in the attempt, but in the not quitting in the face of adversity.

Yea on your time in the gym today! There's nothing quite like a post gym high... I wish it could be bottled for all those times I feel not so motivated (like all the time, lol).
Padme and your children are definitely inspiration for the fight, great job
I love that feeling of pleasant tiredness after doing something physical. Makes me smile and I feel like I am alive...I'm glad you are feeling that!!!
