"sometimes, being single is much better not because i want to stay away from commitments and be free to flirt or go out with anyone i like, but it is more on accepting the fact that i'm just too tired of believing in and fighting for something that isn't meant to be."

as the saying goes, better late than never.  at the start of the year, i made mention of things to be done regarding my physical well-being in a letter to self.  today, i take the first big step in that direction.  i know it's something that is not going to be easy, but i have psyched myself up for this ever since i got confirmation last week that everything is set in motion.  everything else, well, is up to me and how i do things.  where i am now is a product of my negligence and undoing, and it's time for me to undo it.  i guess what motivates me even more is the amount of resources i have put into this project.  there'll be obstacles along the way, and i know it.  but this is not the first time i have done something knowingly difficult, in which some i ended up triumphed in the end, some where i crashed and burned.  i cannot say for certain how this will go, and i don't want to preempt everything by setting high expectations and putting pressure on myself too much.  yes, there is a goal in mind, and it's good to have focus.  but not too much where in i lose sight of everything else.  time to get it started.  there's another saying that goes, one day at a time.
