the pit: May 16 2024

in Actifit17 days ago (edited)

the day is so good not to enjoy in the open. but i have to stay indoors for work, corporate slaves have limited freedom. those freedoms are spent on short breaks and lunch. so much drama! but that is the reality of regular employees to earn money. it is quite difficult to be free when the bank account is running low, bills have a leash on my neck apparently. so sorry to start on a heavy note. but at 6pm i will be free again, i just have to endure this agonizing schedule. gone are the long holidays, back to regular programming. no more escape!


went out at lunch time to breathe a little. sometimes, the comforts of your own little room can be suffocating. quite ironic isn't it? too much familiarity can become intoxicating, and too much routinary sometimes lead to discomfort. strange isn't it? but that is true. just glad to appreciate these pink flowers in my neighborhood. i had to ask my roommate whether this one is really pink to be honest, my color blindness betrayed me at this point. but looking at the picture now, my phone did quite a good job in making it pink: i don't think it was this vivid in reality.


free at last from the rigid corporate life. burn out is just so real. could going to the gym help this feeling even for a bit? i was struggling with my cardio routine these past days as well. it has been ages since i did a full hour of treadmill, i did 30 minutes the last time and 20 before that. when you are in a slump, you really are in one. like falling in an antlion's pit, the more you struggle the more you stumble down. but doing nothing sadly entails the same fate. should i succumb and surrender, or should i die at least trying? nah... i'd spread my wings and fly my way out of here.


before i knew it, an hour has passed. woah! that entertaining tv program helped. that upbeat music helped a lot, too. this is the reason why i do not wish to listen to sad songs for too long, i drown in the emotion without even knowing the lyrics. blame the gym playlist for having taylor's new album on loop for the past days. i only did the treadmill today so i guess i just need to limit my cardio gym time. but no matter what it was, this small victory i take with pride. it does feel good to sweat it all out. it does feel good to finally break through that wall which was long overdue.

so here i am with my 10 thousand steps for the day. hoping to stay on this track from here on.

as always, AMPING KANUNAY!

thanks ayachan. when your work is sedentary, you have no other choice but be active off-work. oh, there is another choice but that makes the case worse.
