Some days are slower than others but alas, we keep going. I slept a bit more than I usually do but that's because of the jog yesterday. I think I'm a lot stronger than I used to be, and that's all thanks to being consistent with the program. I feel so much better about myself and I'll keep going, despite the everything standing in my way.
I've encountered a lot of negativity, more than I envisioned I'll encounter, and sometimes it gets to me. I find myself doubting myself because of utterances of random people/strangers that have zero clues about me or my struggle.
Every time I listen to the words of this song, I feel empowered and my resilience is refreshed. I'll try not to dwell on the failings of the past, despite how often they pervade my thoughts, and just forge ahead, in search of things that are bigger than me.
All my limitations are the poison in my mind that hamper my growth but I won't slow down. I'm made for things bigger than where I find myself today, and as long as I keep pushing, I'll live a life that is worth remembering when I'm old and grey.
As the composer said in the lyrics of the song;
But my heart is a forest green
Sustained by the rivers that I chase in my dreams
I run through the fields dressed in white
Unstained by the poison that leaks from my mind
Keep going
Keep going
Keep going
The poison in my mind won't stop me. I'll keep going.
