Friday

 Friday Reflection

This morning I rose at 4:00 and hit the yoga mat by 4:15. After push-ups and meditation, I felt a shift—choosing discipline over distraction. Later at church, the message was about courage and suffering. They were speaking my life without even knowing it.

I’ve learned real growth isn’t just stopping a habit—it’s bringing the mind back to gratitude, discipline, and awareness. Healing doesn’t come from comfort or theory. It comes from movement—running, yoga, silence, and time.

Back in 2012, after losing a job, I ran 62 miles in one day. That run saved me. It taught me: trauma is released through movement, not just talking.

What I see now is clear—many people speak on things they’ve never lived. But wisdom comes from discipline, from walking through pain. I may not have a suit or a bank account, but I feel wealthy—because clarity turned my suffering into power.

I walk in lived wisdom, not borrowed words.
