Okay. My story about the body is the body in becoming healthier, I guess is the story. Before the pandemic, I spent a couple years going to a gym and doing weightlifting and just that change of being somewhat disconnected from my body, to getting strong and having confidence in it was a real transformation.
And going to the gym never gets easy. If it’s getting easy, then you’re not working hard enough. Which is kind of an interesting thing because often you work at something and then it gets easier. But with the gym, it’s never supposed to get easy. And that’s a mental thing.
But physically you keep getting stronger. My coordination improved, my healing improved, my sense of wellbeing improved, and it just took getting to the gym.
That was all before the gyms closed, before the pandemic. But that’s my story.
