Describe a place or environment where you are perfectly content. What do you do or experience there, and why is it meaningful to you?
As the time progresses slowly at it`s own pace, my body is struggling to handle the weight, empowered by the gravity. As I feel like giving up, my body refuses to, blazing all of my muscles to stand against gravity and provide the power demanded to succeed. This fight becomes more aggressive when a rush of adrenaline crawls through my veins, causing a grunt to be hurled and a fight to be won. As I put the weights to the ground I lay down breathless, thinking about that moment of glory. Despite my muscles aching and being totally crumbled, a sensation of joy and greatness transcends my body, making me feel invincible. This sensation that I am in love with, is what it feels like pushing yourself to the limits and accomplishing your goals. This is now my lifestyle and this lifestyle has helped me being both physically and mentally fit. We all know that phrase "A healthy mind in a healthy body".
The beginning of this journey was really tough, I needed to figure out what I was doing and why I was doing it. Was it worth it to pick up the tiny dumbbells and struggle with them everyday, an action that would change the point of view of others towards me? Was my physical appearance that important to my friends and society? At that time I was full of doubts and low-confidence, I was being suffocated under the pressure of my insecurities. After a long run of physical and mental challenges, not only I found the answers of these questions, but also learnt some crucial lessons about life. My ambitious nature and commitment to create a better me, helped me understand that it`s not the society opinion that matters. What really matters is your opinion, what fills you with joy and what makes you completey comfortable with being yourself. Life is like a competition, but the only difference is that you are the only contestant taking part in.You challenge yourself everyday, overcoming obstacles to create a better person than the one you face in the mirror everyday. This journey boosted my confidence and made me love myself, not in the narcistic way, but in a way of respecting who I am and doing everything possible to outdo the old versions of me. This persuasion impacted my life, boosting my confidence, making me become more social and open to try new things. In other words it made me to overlook life in another point of view.
That`s the main reason why I feel perfectly content on the gym , because it has opened my eyes towards life and has sculpted a better person out of me. To end this essay I would like to quote the phrase "It`s not the weights that get lighter, it is you who become stronger.", meaning that life doesn`t get easier as time flows but it is us who get better at it.
