I see you
shifting
between lanes
cutting off
the soccer mom
carrying her tiny crew
in a blue Trailblazer
waving your middle finger
at the silver-haired senior
calmly cruising
in his classic Cadillac
swerving left
shifting right
weaving
in and out
in and out
in
and out
forcing yourself
inches
then feet
ahead
of others
yet
here
we are
at the crossroads
side by side
both waiting
(im)patiently
for our signals
to turn
green

I really hate talking about myself, but if I have to...
I’m K.L. McDaniel, the person behind TheOtherKLM. I’m an introvert with extrovert moments, a fitness-minded person fighting later-age fat, and someone trying to keep life somewhat organized without pretending it isn’t a mess.
Here, I write about the things I keep coming back to: movement, mental health, learning, self-awareness, and the strange little contradictions that make people interesting. I’m not here to act like I have everything figured out. I’m here to think through it, laugh when possible, and maybe find a little balance in the middle of the clutter.
So, that’s me. More or less.
