on failing goals

I am suppose to run
every single stinking day
for seven days in a row.
Today is day 4
and I have not run
and I think I can't.
It is a simple matter
of forcing myself out of bed
combined with getting out of the house
and not getting yelled at
by my loving parents.
I want to run
but I can't deal with their caring,
and so I may become angry at my own self
for failing my goal.
Which is worse?
