I gots shoulders.
I’m not sure I had shoulders before. I definitely have shoulders now. And I don’t just mean “my shoulders are wider”, though they probably are visibly wider than they were. I mean that I, as a person with a body, am conscious of having shoulders in a way I’ve never been before.
There’s muscle in them. Bulk that I can feel moving. Muscles in my back, making me stand up straighter than I ever have before. Muscles I can flex as I sit here in my chair.
Muscles that are sore after yesterday’s kettlebell extravaganza.
