TODAY TURNED OUT TO BE A PRETTY GREAT DAY

You know what? Life has a pretty funny way of working out. I'm not going to lie, this morning was not going my way at all. Technology wasn't on my side as I tried to sort some stuff on my laptop, my website crashed as I was writing my blog this morning and erased it. I was just feeling frustrated.

I think I had also woken up in a weird mood because of how much I had been conusming the day before. I thought my phone was the issue, but the moment I put it away and into the drawer, I replaced it with youtube. It's not that I have been addicted to my phone, but instead have been addicted to content all this time. And in all honesty it has been draining. Absorbing all that content throughout the day really doesn't give much room to refresh, have new ideas etc. Luckily I was forced to leave the house this morning and get away from it all.

I had to pick up the DOGMAN display from the cinema. Apparently it was getting in the technicians way. Had tried to take care of it a couple days ago, but it couldn't fit in my aunties car lol. But for today I called up a couple of my friends to help with it and recorded some content too. We carried it all the way from Whitechapel to peckham. Wasn't a bad trip though, the train deffo made it easier lol.

Anyway, afterwards my friends H & O were going to do some calenstetics training and I thought I'd tag along. It was intense as fuck! 500 reps, free roam! Pull ups, press ups, dips, squats, you name it. But icl I felt great! After we just relaxed in the park, no phones, just sitting down with our socks off in nature. I hadn't felt this present in so long! We even played tag, which was mad fun and just made us feel like kids again in all honesty. We finally left and ended up chilling by this lake and were just bussing jokes. There was a moment where we we'ren't saying anything to each other. Just simply sitting on the bench looking at the water as the glow of the sun peireced through the trees above (Subtle writing flex and that). but honestly... In that moment I felt so present and gratful for my life. It made all my passed problems of the day feel so redundant. And it made me realise something else too. If technology isn't working for me, it's probably a message from God to go outside and touch some grass man. I can always take care of whatever the issue is later. H made a point that trying to fix everything, all the time right now is kind of backwards. Thorughout humanity it has taken time for things to happen. 'You know long it would have taken us to get to Paris 100 years ago? Now it takes two hours'. This is the fastest our world has ever been, but it's not natural. Some things take time, because they should take time. I shouldn't be afraid to step away from a problem. It's better to come back to it with a fresh mind.

I'm happy my last blog got erased. It wouldn't have been the most positive thing to post. Made me also realise that maybe writing these blogs isn't something I should do first thing in the morning, but instead something I should do later in the day and when I'm not in a bad mood. lol.

Yeah. Today turned out to be a pretty great day.

Mad grateful for my friends man.
