This Temple
I have always thought of my body as a temple. As a gift from God. That each thing I put in is a show or an offering of what I think of the gift of life God has given me. So that said what have I done. I have eaten crap, worked out only half ass. Given every excuse to myself as to why this is good enough. Is that what I would say on judgement day? Be it a competition (that I am by no means ready for) or the day my maker takes me home. I have to believe in my heart that giving my all to improve my body is not just for today and not just to look hot. In all actuality it is a way to show the world how much I love the gift of life, the gift of strength. So for the last time I have desecrated this temple. I respect what I see others on this board do. It is not an overnight journey and it takes the mental fortitude of a soldier but the love of a zealot. So I will be both. Strength in body knowing I can make it. Zealot in heart loving without question this life of bodybuilding. It is onward and upward. I will use it for the purpose intended to serve and honor not serve, myself last my God first.

That is the real spirit! Superficial goals can only get you so far; after a while the motivation needs to come from somewhere deeper. You’re doing awesome, keep it up!
