Hi y’all! Happy Saturday! 🙂

Aaah, the beginning of the weekend, the softness of your pillow, the fresh smell of your afternoon coffee, the alarm that you never scheduled because you will damn well sleep until you don’t want to anymore… Saturday, Saturday, Saturday! Oh, how we love you Saturday!

Let’s say it’s midday, and you all just woke up, ready to get your freaky wild weekend lifestyle on. You know what you should add to your Saturday? Or rather what I do every Saturday?

I go to the gym.

Dun Dun Dun! Oh the horror! How can how stain a perfect day of laziness by  perpetuating the odious act of working out?  Someone fetch the pitchforks.

Except that working out is absolutely great because I’m so completely dead at the end of it that I have no trouble sleeping at night. Once the pain in my muscles fades away, I feel great and I definitely have more strength and endurance to execute all the pesky weekly tasks I have to do. Like carrying heavy stuffs or running to catch the bus.

It’s not about whipping your body into the society’s beauty standard shoved down our throat on a daily basis. It’s about loving your body by staying healthy and doing what’s best for it, so it won’t fail you when you need to be strong.

Today’s Shatzi is all for it. Enjoy!

Quote of the day

 

Picture of the day

Song of the day

“Rise”

I won’t just survive
Oh, you will see me thrive
Can’t write my story
I’m beyond the archetype

I won’t just conform
No matter how you shake my core
‘Cause my roots—they run deep, oh

Oh, ye of so little faith
Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it
Victory is in my veins
I know it, I know it
And I will not negotiate
I’ll fight it, I’ll fight it
I will transform

When, when the fire’s at my feet again
And the vultures all start circling
They’re whispering, “You’re out of time,”
But still I rise

This is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in
Think again
Don’t be surprised
I will still rise

I must stay conscious
Through the madness and chaos
So I call on my angels
They say

Oh, ye of so little faith
Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it
Victory is in your veins
You know it, you know it
And you will not negotiate
Just fight it, just fight it
And be transformed

‘Cause when, when the fire’s at my feet again
And the vultures all start circling
They’re whispering, “You’re out of time,”
But still I rise

This is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in
Think again
Don’t be surprised
I will still rise

Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it
Oh, oh, oh, oh
You know it, you know it
Still rise
Just fight it, just fight it
Don’t be surprised
I will still rise
