Climbing = pain = awesomeness
I climbed super hard today because I know the gym will close early tomorrow and be closed for New Years. Going outside is out of the question due to how cold it is.

The time to buy new shoes is here and it has come down to the
Arrowhead
Which is a tighter and more aggressive version of my Anasazis

It’s like we operate at a lower frequency than most people, we’re the legion of the tired and the traumatized. We are truth-seekers, none of the generic answers to life will work for us because our lives have been filled with complications. Those cheap answers that most people can…
