All of this getting ready for the run has got me thinking I’m in the wrong spot. I should be out there, too. I should kicking my own ass on a regular basis…just like my friend. While I wil cheer her on tomorrow I can’t help but feel just a little jealous, a little That Should Be Me.
There is something to be said for finding your way. There is something to be applauded when, after you have found your way, you actually go your own way. Finding the way and actually taking it are two very different things. I think I needed to come to Florida to figure that out. We talked love and relationships, comedy and tragedy, heart and soul and the one thing that remains clear to me is this: live for today. Don’t think you should wait until something better comes along because, who knows? maybe it never will. You need to make it better if no one else will. Period.
We saw an accident today. It happened in the blink of an eye. I was on the phone and wasn’t paying much attention. A decent witness I definitely was not. I couldn’t even tell you who hit first. All I know is that I watch too much crime tv so when I saw the reddish liquid streaming from the injured truck all I could think was “fireball explosion” and pure panic set in. My heart raced even though I continued to talk on the phone. I don’t know if worry was anywhere near my voice, or if I sounded miles away from my concern. All I know is this: in an instance two vehicles collided. Where were they going? Doesn’t matter. They’ll all be late now. They are lucky to be alive.
That’s my point. Life can change you. Or you can change your life. Hello again, hello.
amen, my friend!! all i can say is san diego rock n’ roll. hello.
It`s not too hard to kick my butt-workoutwise. I do that. 😉 BUT (and to borrow your expressions here) I just wish I could make myself “live for today” and “make my life better” as well. Make myself stop complaining about deficits and do something about it instead…. 😦
You`ve spoken the truth there for sure, yet as often truth kind of hurts and is uncomfortable too……. . 😦 😉
PS : regarding your running. I`m pretty sure that you can get back into it, if you can just spare the time. I mean heck, even I can do it, so…….! 😉 🙂
NM~ thank you,thank you!
