Day 159: A Runner's Soul


I gots a runner's high.
Today started out awfully. I just about bashed myself in every aspect of my life possible. I wanted to scream, kick, fight and run. But I cried instead. 
Have you ever had those days where it seems like the entire world is out to get you, and no matter what you do you feel as if you can't win?
Today was one of those days.
I was miserable beyond miserable.
But then I talked to my best friend Stella, she always brightens my days.
And then I had a nice talk with my Mom, which helped a lot.
And then I went running.
Oh, running.
How I love you and everything you allow me to do.
You open me up to endless possibilities.
Placing one foot in front of the other and moving forward has never felt so good. It's like there's some force driving me forward, and it feels so right. Running itself doesn't fix things. It allows you to fix things. It allows you to be who you are meant to be because when you're running, you're nothing else but stripped down to yourself. You're free.

What is one thing that no one knows about you because no one cared to ask?
Let me think on this...
