This Too Shall Pass
I’m feeling a little better about things today and I was just thinking of that saying "This Too Shall Pass" and instead of motivating me, it actually kinda depressed me more. It basically says "this is just another crappy thing in life you’ll have to pick yourself up from and move on. just think of all the many crappy things you had to go through and how you eventually got over it. there will sure to be many other crappy things in the future too but you’ll get over those as well". I mean seriously, why does there have to be so many crappy things in life?? I guess one argument is the bad things make the good things that much better. I guess that’s true. It kind of falls in line with No Pain No Gain. To get that great physique you have to suffer but all that pain eventually pays off. So I guess that’s how I’ll look at it. This pain will make me stronger and I’m sure at some time in the future it will pay off somehow and I’ll be glad I got through another challenge.

Hey Ryan, when so many thiings are going sour in your life it’s hard sometimes to be thankful for the positive things we have and use them to help make us stronger. That’s what bodybuilding can do for you if you let it. No matter what else is going on in your life, get those workouts in no matter what you have to do to make it happen. Bodybuilding will strenghten your mind and soul just as much as your body, and you’ll be able to better deal with all the crap that life will throw at you.
