OK #MutantMuscle. It's story time. Let's talk about fear. Fear is a weird little emotion that can stop even the strongest of folks. It can freeze you to one spot, even if death itself is running at you at mach-9. Yet, fear can also motivate.

....but anger is one hell of a motivator. So, coming up in January, I'll be entering my first strongman competition. I may not place, but I'm going to prove to myself that I can at least try. That and I owe some folks a cheer. This is the best that I can do. 😁
