Today I ran 8 miles and after my run my mouth was dry so I drank out of a water fountain that was far from simple. It had filters and a nice place to fill up my water bottle. The world isn’t so bad. Thanks to the inventors who took the time to create such a nifty device. I’m pretty sure they did it for a guy like me who likes to run death laps around indoor tracks. It was a grueling run, the last lap was the toughest but I’m still alive. I did see white spots in my visual for a second on my final lap but thank God I got my second wind. I guess I must be here for a reason because I made it through 8 miles. I did think about Dr. King and all of the people back then striving for this one moment in time. With everyone plotting to take over the world even if it were a dirty simple water fountain I probably would have taken whatever I could get because an 8 mile run can make you thirsty and tired. The track was filled with white people and Black people so I guess it’s mission accomplished so activist you can go home now. Hit the gym, I guess. The water is filtered nowadays. That’s good. I later got denied for a small loan but trust me it’s all good because the water quenched my thirst and I did pay my water bill. I tried to get some extra cash just to see how far I could stretch my blessings but either way I’m grateful. I really am. We’re all in this together, the bank just lost out on making a few extra bucks. I could have used the money to put a simple water fountain in my building. What a dream.
