WAR CONCEPT: Seasonal DepressionThere can be beauty found in the winter time I guess. All of us seem to get a little down and depressed in the winter; and many even struggle with their addiction, including myself. I say we just work on having a different outlook on winter. There is beauty to be had even on the gloomiest of all days. I say on these gloomy days we work on our spiritual selves the most-- because it is true that gloomy days seem to go right in line with the spiritual. I know that when I am dark in my mind and I choose to work on my spiritual self by studying about Christ, it is only then that I seem to learn the most about myself -- and then all of the sudden that dark, gloomy, snowy day became a bright and comfortable day- because of how I was just willing to embrace the gloom.I think it is important for us to embrace when uncomfortable times arise, and to just realize that maybe the purpose for us being uncomfortable now is so that we might appreciate when we finally do find some comfort later.The cold winter is what awakens our appreciation for the beauty of the spring and summer. The hot summer is what leads us to appreciating the cool fall. But when the end of the cool fall approaches we all take a big breath because the dark winter months are about to grab ahold of us.Post what you think..Do you struggle in the winter? Remote ProgramCLEAR 3 Sets of:Row 200 Meters (95% Effort) + 10 Fast Burpees; rest 2 minutesNOTE: Post 3 times -- challenge yourselfSTRONGA. 5 Low Bar; rest 2 minutes X 5NOTE: Read / meditate during rest–heavier than last time.
