| is self improvement really masturbation?

i think it was ralph waldo emerson that said that self improvement was pretty much masturbation. i could definitely understand why he would say that but at the same time i think it is better than letting go, comparable to death. i joined the gym almost a week ago. it's the first time i've ever joined. i did a couple sports in junior high and failed. in late elementary i did kung fu but that lasted only half a year. now that i have joined a gym, it can be an all-over workout instead of just combat muscles, volleyball muscles, or running muscles. i plan to work out at least three times a week..i just dunt wanna end up looking like a man.
he said he doesn't think he could leave me. then why was he going to? i am speaking in a physical sense. we have already broken up. i am over that. i just want him to stay by my side. it is really hard to explain.
so tired..
the road not taken
two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
and sorry i could not travel both
and be one traveler, long i stood
and looked down one as far as i could
to where it bent in the undergrowth; then took the other, as just as fair,
and having perhaps the better claim,
because it was grassy and wanted wear;
though as for that the passing there
had worn them really about the same, and both that morning equally lay
in leaves no step had trodden black.
oh, i kept the first for another day!
yet knowing how way leads on to way,
i doubted if i should ever come back. i shall be telling this with a sigh
somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and i--
i took the one less traveled by,
and that has made all the difference.
