C’est La Vie…
The reminders really hurt. They really force me to look at my own reflection; in doing so, I feel helpless and ugly before my own scrutiny. I’m nowhere close to my reflection; it’s like gazing through a telescope at some celestial body, perfect and mesmerizing… and always out of reach.
…Hm.
I’m not trying to be a downer, but sometimes I have no idea where I’m running. I’m running for the sake of running, for the pure joy of sweating it all out, trying not to spend a lot of time wondering when I might pass out from the exertion.
When it comes down to it, maybe we all “purge” differently…

Indeed but I think the body/mind/soul needs to purge every now and again.
You are neither helpless nor ugly. You are amazing, intelligent, dynamic, and beautiful. While our own eyes see ourselves differently, understand that we will always be our own worst enemy.
Thanks… that means more than you know… <3
