This is one of my poems i wrote about the complicated mind when asked by my psychiatrist for my inner most thoughts. Will you look away
If you look into my mind you may not like what you see
Confusion, racing thoughts, echoes of who I would of liked to be
If you look into my heart you may not like what I feel
Pain and hurt and anguish and a barrier made of steel
If you look into my soul...you will find
That i am uncomplicated loving and kind...
But if you label me you will see what you want to see. That is so not me

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
