Medium says to tell my story. There’s nothing to be shared. There is actually, or, there are but, there’s no mental strength whatsoever to go down that path. But I will keep this worthwhile. You’re an avid reader and for that, just for that, I love you, just as friends tho.

I lack one crucial ability to be a writer and that’s reading. I hate it so much, so damn much. Being a younger teenager, I spent a lot of my time flipping pages of books, magazines, anything, even the sex columns my parents tried hiding. I enjoyed being submersed in a person’s fictional world. It’s beautiful because two worlds are created that moment a reader gets involved: the writer’s and the reader’s. No matter how accurate the writer is with the description, there will be discrepancies depending on the reader’s mental. So, like, you know, it is really… beautiful. Anyhoo, that’s all going to change — my hatred for reading. To cultivate the habit, the one hour before work I use for cardio will now be used to read and I started today with Chimamanda’s Purple Hibiscus. I think I want to read the book that has a character called Caniene or something. Everyone on literature twitter talks about her fgs! Oh well, writing everyday was my first step and this will be another. We are on this path together so watch me become a writer.

It’s only a matter of time before gym becomes boring for me. I mean, I am buff now with a six pac (still got some fat in my belly tho) and I feel like there is nothing more to achieve, except get my body fat to a single digit or I become hella toned to the point where my body is just hard muscle. I don’t know how niggas do this for years, fack. I might soon need a new challenge but, the reason I know I won’t quit is because in the midst of all that iron is when I am most at peace.

I am still listening to Six Lack’s album drawing motivation from it’s emotional lyrics, acting like whatever resides in my heart isn’t real. Baseless infatuation? Probably. Most likely. Definitely.

By the way, just pray for me.
