This is my last steps entry. I've decided to stop wearing a smartwatch and to stop tying myself down to something like that. It's like a Tamagotchi that I have to feed all the time. Since I took off my watch today, there are only steps from the past six days. I often didn't have my watch on during that time, so there aren't very many. Counted: 16,067 steps / H Band App
How was my week? Strange. I feel like I'm somewhere else, while my body is trapped here. I've met a lot of peopleβnew people I'd never seen beforeβand I feel like an alien no matter where I go. Where people know me, and also where they don't.
I worked out, as usual. Monday at the gym, Tuesday and Thursday Krav Maga at the martial arts school. I attended a lecture. Visited my parents. I studied Spanish every day.
And I have no idea who or what I am. What am I doing here? Why?
, for this activity. I like the way you offer and describe activities like this. And I wish you every success and lots of great new activities and posts on this topic.
. π Your 16,067 recorded steps are only a very small part of what your week actually contained β training, Krav Maga, visiting your parents, studying Spanish, attending a lecture, meeting peopleβ¦ and simply trying to find your way through a week that clearly felt very different inside than it may have looked from the outside. And if taking the watch off gives you one less thing demanding your attention, then take it off. Tangled Steps was never meant to make anyone feel tied to a number, a device or a streak. Your movement still happened whether a watch counted it or not. More importantly, thank you for the kind words about Tangled Steps and the way it has been run. They mean a great deal to us. π We are sorry to see you leave the activity, but there is absolutely no pressure to continue. Sometimes stepping away from something is the right movement too. Wishing you some quieter ground beneath your feet while you work through all those big questions. And wherever your path takes you next, thank you for having walked part of this one with us. ππ
