Influenced for good.

 I saw a short-form video talking about relationships. The woman in the video stated that we don't get to choose our parents, siblings or children. The only relationship we choose is our partner and they chose to be with us. That is the key, we must make that choice continuously or choose something else. As the quote goes:

Choose your love; love your choice.

It doesn't always come easy - nothing worthwhile ever does. It does take effort.

We get older, we have trials and health issues. Our bodies stop producing those things that would make us physically and emotional attractive to each other. We get a bit chunky around the middle and a little short tempted with each other at times but it's the late night conversions - working together to discuss the troubles and problems that you have that make you grow closer. In the end, as long as you can both live long lives, you will need to chose to help each other with your walkers or into cars.

That's why I have also started to lift heavy things. I'm not going to a gym but they say that lean muscle mass is the greatest indicator on longevity. Daily exercise should be as regular as daily hygiene.

Anyway, I think I'm getting too influenced by all the influencers.
