I felt unusually gross when I left the gym today.
And in the shower it hit me.....
There are some days, like today, that I feel dirty with other people's sweat - from the floor, the equipment, the days we get on the ground and, well - get dirty.
Then there are other days, like when I run, where it's only my sweat. It's less dirty because it's my own. It's not roses but it's pure dirt - raw - sweat - on top of my skin. Cleansing in a way because it's the dirt coming out - not your dirt going in.
The epiphany in the shower was this:
How synonymous to every day life. Your drama and dirt is a lot harder to clean off than my own inner issues. It makes me want to take longer showers and scrub harder.
So I'll still carry on getting dirty when life throws me in the mud.
But I'll try my best to conserve water and stick to shorter showers.
