When I was 16, Rachel and Ross broke up. (You know, on Friends.) I was so heart-broken. Maybe, one might say, a little too heart-broken. You see, at the time, I had my own "Ross" (Kevin). And I really thought that if Rachel and Ross could make it work, then OBVIOUSLY me and Kevin could make it work.
Being dramatic and 16, my life was seriously disturbed for a week or so until I knew what happened on the next episode. (Where is this going?? I'll tie it up in a second, I promise). I think I started to get confused as to where my life was and where the characters life were, you know? Anyway, one of the days I didn't even want to go to school. My mom asked me what was going on, and I said "Ross broke up with me". She looked so confused and then I realized, 1) I was crazy and 2) You can't just stop your life because bad things happen (even if they happen to your favorite tv characters).
Last week was really challenging and I am SHOCKED that I got to the gym for the 3 times that I did. Well, not shocked, because I had to put a lot of energy in getting my ass to the box. (That sounds sexual but it isn't.)
Last year, some really terrible things happened in my life and I didn't get to the gym for 2 months. Did missing Crossfit make those terrible things any better? Nope. It just meant that those terrible things happened AND I had to stress about getting back to the gym. So this realization has made my life a little bit easier, and my goals a little bit stronger. GET TO THE GYM.
