As I lower it down again, and release my grip, I notice something. An odd pain. Odd, but all too familiar. I look down at my hands, only to see the skin torn off in a few places, where tough calluses used to lie. Most are still there, though wounded. Wounded metaphorically, as their fallen comrades left behind hollow graves. Wounded physically from battle. An ongoing struggle for victory. The discolored contusions, although painful, allow for a smile to come across my face. Why? Wounds will heal, and will live to deadlift again, and will see victory ... again.
