Improving the body, but at the expense of what?
Tuesday, January 27th, 2009I look in the mirror and I’m never satisfied.. I know I will never be.. I’ve seen the potential, and I know what’s possible. It’s hard to slow down when you know how fast you can go.
Still, a part of me always wonders about the sacrifices I’ve made to stand here where I am. Proud? Yes, very. Regrets? Maybe one or two.
I think in a lot of ways, my time could have, and should have, been better used to improve on other aspects of who I am. Perhaps then, I would be better equipped to make up for the character flaws that plague every man. Being physically imposing hasn’t corrected any weaknesses in my personality; it has only helped sweep them under the rug. The problems are still there; people are just too distracted to notice.
I need to be better, and do it quickly. Friends have shielded me from my flaws; you get cut a lot of slack when people look to you as a role model.
No one is above criticism; I too need to be held accountable. Instead of wanting bigger arms or better arms, I’m going to demand that I become a better person…
Strength of 2 men, but still man. John, you’ve got to be better than this…
