"So... shall we go?"

...and all started with this sentence.

Today I went, as usual, to breakfast with my two good friends from "crypto" world.

As yesterday I had a well-balanced lunch, with a lot of carbohydrates, and a fantastic dinner with my friends and goddaughter, I decided that it would be a good idea to go to the bakery where we had agreed to have breakfast on foot, in instead of going by car. Of course, dinner yesterday, despite not having finished very late, accumulated with the fatigue of a long week at work, resulted in a process of waking up and getting out of bed much longer than I had planned. I woke up around 9 am, and knowing that the usual meeting time is around 10:15 am, I didn't have much time to travel the 5 km that separate the two points. You may think that 5 km is a short and fully accessible distance to do it in just over an hour... But it turns out that, as I had already told you one day, in a publication of mine, I have a neurological disease degenerative. I'm not putting myself in a situation of "unfortunate", because I know I'm not. Many people I know with my illness cannot walk easily at all. And most of them even have to use a cane to walk safely without falling or tripping. It so happens that for a few months now, I have noticed that I have a "drop" in strength in my right leg. I notice it in the gym, when I'm doing unilateral lower limb exercises, and also when I take long walks. I end up "dragging" the tip of my right foot a little, which despite not being very limiting, is probably annoying for me. I suffer from Peter Pan's "syndrome", I wouldn't want to grow old, ever! Ahahah But I know that I have to accept my physical and psychological condition, and not let the new obstacles challenges make my path discouraging.

My great friend H said a sentence at the end of our breakfast that stuck in my memory:

"So... shall we go?"

And you can ask yourselves, but why did that sentence stick in yours? memory? Well then, because if we know that we are not well, the first step is to admit it, and try to change something!

I want to thank my friends for not giving up encouraging me to continue to accept the new challenges, not letting them loom large in my mind!

On the way back home, I found myself trying to understand the new challenges before me. I can't be afraid of losing what I still have today (like, for example, the ability to walk), but I have to embrace and be grateful for having that ability today!

The creepiest statue that I saw!

Of course, @pardinus challenged me to make a post today, to take advantage and share my passion for black and white photography with you all.

Thank you for dropping by!

Stay safe!

Cheers!
