Missing out another 5k tomorrow, not cleared for running yet. Once we break, theres no predicting the timeline for healing. All we can do is work on building back the strength, and hope someday it will pay off.
My 5yo niece visited me for the first time last month. She noticed the van gogh starry night poster on my kitchen wall, recognized it as a famous one 😮 and asked about it in detail. Next morning she handed me her reproduction, 🤩 for my wall. 🙃
“You say I am loved
when I can't feel a thing
You say I am strong
when I think I am weak
And you say I am held
when I am falling short
And when I don't belong,
oh, You say I am Yours
And I believe, oh, I believe
What You say of me
I believe”

A doctor accepts a new patient, to see them 1month after their call. They spend entire first visit to evaluate & gather info, to conclude patient needs to see them once a week for 6weeks & yet they cannot see them for next 2months. How is that normal? 🤔 #BrokenSystem
The SF 5k last year was my personal best wrt timing. I was training since my Oakland 5k this year to improve my pace. I really felt I may do slightly better time this year. Instead I accidentally broke my feet and cannot even walk it in 1hr. #OhWell#ThatsLife 😏
“And I'm too perfect, 'til I open my big mouth
I want to be me, is that not allowed?
And I'm too perfect, 'til I show you that I'm not
A thousand people I could be for you, and you hate the f*ing lot”

How many roads must a woman walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
How many times must a woman look up
Before she can see the sky?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is “not in this lifetime!”
If you are rejected
Accept it
If you are unloved
Let go
If they chose someone or something over you
Move on

People who are not treating you well are not going to treat you any better if you work harder.
This month, my aunt is fighting cancer for life the 2nd time. The courage with which she faces it is unbelievable. Bad things happen to good people. Trick is to no longer ask why something happened, but ask how we will respond, now that it has happened, and who will support us.
It is amazing how tech industry has so much patience to nurture and invest in a AI robot, but absolutely unwilling to do the same for URM human, and abandons most smart humans of any kind older than 35/40.
When feelings are heavy they become all we are
And we become night time dreamers
And street walkers, small talkers
When we should be daydreamers
And moonwalkers and dream talkers
In real life

Someday, wont this be funny
Well I want it funny now
Someday, wont this be long ago
I wanna feel that now
Sorry if I don’t know how
But hey what can you do
I'm a touchy feely fool
Life is pretty cruel
For a touchy feely fool
I wud give anything to not give a shit,
but I do
