Stronger today
Some advice.
Never eat medjool dates and pumpkin seeds before you go to bed. They will give you BAD dreams.
I woke up quite upset and not just mentally exhausted but physically. I had to get up and get going.
As I was driving up to Runyon Canyon, I was playing my dreams like re-runs and it was not my favorite ones. I knew that there was only one thing that would let me forget about this epidsode.
Running.
And its assistant- music.
My playlist today.
Sigur Ros- Staralfur
The Wallflowers- One Headlight
The XX- Shelter
Sigur Ros- Inni mer syngur vitleysingur
Iron & Wine- Boy with a coin
+/- - Snowblind
One Republic- Good life
Florence + The Machine- You've got the love(The XX Remix)
Miike Snow- Animal
Animal Collective- Did you see the words
Lykke Li- Dance, Dance, Dance
Jacks Mannequin- Swim
The Arcade Fire- No cars go
Letters to Cleo- I want you to want me
Queen- Bohemian Rhapsody
I would say it's an eclectic mix but it works for me.
At one point I decided to jog down the largest trail, once you start, you can't really stop. It's a thing called gravity. It reminded me of when my dad and I hiked all the time.
A part of me was really sad that I've been solo for the past year but patience is a virtue- it'll happen.
Well to say the least. This morning wasnt the brightest. I was almost complete with my hike and ofcourse was NOT looking forward to jogging allllll the way back up to my car. On my way up- I set my mind to accomplish at least half, that was before I saw a friend and, well- you know, that motivated me a bit more. Just a bit.
Ok.
When I had enough.
When I thought I used all my energy for the day.
This guy turns the corner.
No. It's not the man of my dreams (although that would be nice).
Its a guy wearing a STRONGER TODAY tee shirt.
How could I stop? If that's not a push to keep going- I don't know what is.
Not only did I make it to my goal, but surpassed it and kept going.
Wow. All before 8:30am.
Not too shabby.
Till next time,
Peace, love and happiness.
