Tonight I took my mother out for her birthday. She said all she wanted to do was spend time with me and go out to a place I liked to eat that she's never tried. I took her to my absolute favorite Thai Restaurant and she loved it. Usually I would train on this day, but I chose to spend time with Ma instead. It's been important for me during this time to also try to build functional relationships with my family, or at least attempt to. Even if that means it's me driving my dad to the grocery store, I still make a conscious effort to just be around more and be present. Perhaps the gym can resume next week.
