I wrote this text on the 27th of November, 2022. It was the day I was doing street photography and heard first comments in the autumn/winter 2022/2023 season.
I wandered through Warsaw’s streets while it was 4 degrees Celsius (39.2 degrees Fahrenheit). Moreover, I wore summer clothes (including the www.adammazek.com t-shirt) without a winter cap and gloves. Two women (the first in the Ochota district, the second in the Mokotow, near my house) asked if I did not feel cold. In both cases, the answer was the same:
I feel frigid temperatures, but my body is not cold. I feel coldness only at my fingertips.
I suppose these women thought that I was crazy. Perhaps they were right. Still, I consider people who do not expose their bodies to cold as crazy. I wrote many times about exposing my body to cold. It revigorates the mind, body, and soul. Undoubtedly, I sleep better after starting my romance with a cold. How happy I am that I discovered for myself the possibility of exposing my body to frigid temperatures. It gives me power, self-confidence, and self-esteem.
It boasted all these things. I’ve been mixing it with intermittent fasting since April 2021.
The more I do all these things, the more I know I will do them until my life’s end. And what about the first comments in the autumn/winter 2022/2023 season? I do not know what the future holds. Still, I can imagine these comments are not the last I will hear in the upcoming season. I’ve already written a text about words I listened to one year earlier. One of them was, as far as I remember, “Hardcore Is In The City.” I must finish writing this text. I must go to sleep. Tomorrow, early in the morning, I will take a freezing shower. By doing it, I will take the first step to going out of my comfort zone during the day.
