I promise you won't regret it.

Maybe your thing isn't the gym, maybe it's drawing or doing your makeup or taking a shower or going for a walk. The thing you know if you do it, you'll feel better, but sometimes you just can't bring yourself to do it. Start small. Just mascara today. Just a doodle. Hair washed in the sink.

Plus all the time I spend in the gym, that's time I spent dedicated to ME. Worshipping at my temple. Serving my own interests and goals with single-minded intensity. That's LOVE. That's PROFOUND love. So is tapping out early sometimes. So is giving yourself grace when you can't make it to the car.

If nothing else, I know that showing up in this way is working toward my goals. My shoulders sore as fuck from yesterday are telling me they're growing. I might not see it in the mirror or on the scale or in the closet tomorrow but it accumulates, and I can trust in that process.

Here's mine today: maybe going to the gym wasn't going to make me ultimately feel better about the immense personal problem I am having to wait to deal with, but not going to the gym would probably have made it harder to cope in the meantime bc not going to the gym is depressing as fuck!

Sibs I can't promise it'll make you feel better but I can tell you you'll never regret showing up for yourself

Does anyone know a trans creator who is atheist/agnostic and can handle debate? I'm looking for upcoming guest spots on TACIS
