Frustrating
My Sunday school teacher is a stud. Do you know how distracting that is? Here I am trying to focus on the lesson and be spiritual, and looking at the teacher, I see a physique I admire and want to be like. Having noticed it before, I made it a point to get to know him a bit to see him as more than his build. He's a good teacher with a powerful testimony, and seems like an all around nice guy. I had succeeded in seeing him differently, but found it a little more distracting after he moved in a way that showed off his build. After that I was distracted for the whole lesson.
Stinks, huh? At least I am able to recognize it as something and someone I admire and even envy, rather than something sexual. Still, I can't spend too much time thinking about it. I know that if I dwell on it when I notice such things, it can in turn lead me to start looking at things sexually (or to look at sexual things). That's part of why I am blogging about it...to change my focus and break the train of thought.
Maybe I need to just start working out so that I am not so envious. Maybe I'll post on my other blog where I am much more public about my identity.

Yeah working out is an all around great idea. I've been doing it consistently since september and honestly i'm no more built or handsome than when I started but I have felt the confidence that comes from having a goal and sticking at it. Hopefully your genes and metabolism will be more responsive to weight training.
