Body odour

This morning I came to the gym with the intention of pushing through my workout routine as per usual. I don’t typically dislike or enjoy my time at the gym these days, I’ve conditioned myself to do things I don’t necessarily want to do especially when I don’t feel like doing it. The only cure for not feeling like doing something good for me today is doing it anyway. I always feel better when it’s done. This too shall pass.


As I was saying, I walked in the room to a overwhelming tsunami of bad body Odour. It made me so angry to the point where I visibly showed the room I was upset and proceeded to curse out loud so that the person could hear me. Suffice to say this accomplished nothing and as I reflect on this event I can’t help but think to myself, the person does not know they stink. They’re most likely so used to it that it does not bother them enough to change. This is a lot like my defects of character. I usually do not know im being a dick in the moment while everyone around me is well aware. It is only until I slow down and pay attention to my inner environment that I being to slowly change my attitude and behaviour. The best part about it is… everyone wins. I’m happy and aware while those around me aren’t burdened with my immature emotional state.

It is important for me to remember that I cannot change it all at once today. This only happens one day at a time.
