#Monomad Challenge - Iron Knights

Good evening, #Monomad friends

Here is my entry for the #monomad contest by @brumest and @monochromes.

The weather continues to be very gray around here... Lots of rain. Intense rain. Although the days are clearly longer than they were less than a month and a half ago, the rain persists... The sky rarely takes a break. An intense downpour falls from above, leaving everything covered in a damp whimper. Time... it seems to almost slip away... Through our fingers. It almost seems as if, suddenly, we are being influenced by something that takes away what we hold most precious. How is it possible that the days pass so quickly?
Is there no way we can slow down a little?

The habit and routine I had gained since August has been lost. I haven't been to the gym in three days. I don't have the energy or the physical disposition to go. I know that if I went, I wouldn't regret it, but a mixture of lack of energy and unwillingness to find a gym crammed with new members, the result of New Year's resolutions, leaves me in a state of complete mental intoxication.

How can we allow ourselves to be carried away by something as futile as a moving image on a screen on our wall or in our hands? I hope the good weather, or at least not so bad weather, returns, so that I can make better use of my time and my days.

On this rainy Sunday afternoon, when I took these photos, I was surprised by a group of iron horsemen who turned their backs on me... As if indicating where I should go!

I hope you enjoyed my post here in the B&W community

Bem Hajam 🍀
