Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Be kind to everyone you meet, for everyone single one of us is carrying a heavy load.
There was no exercise yesterday. Too many other things took priority.
Not only is diet and exercise challenging, but so is not letting too many tough days happen in a row. Don’t do it.
Health is wealth.
That’s what the 93-year old woman said.
She always said it.
She had a wisdom about her that only comes from seeing it all. A lifetime of sorting through the “meaning of life”.
In 1989, Cheryl and I returned to Pennsylvania for our Best Man’s wedding.
It was during that trip that Grammy died in my arms.
And for some unknown reason this morning, I’m recalling what Grammy always said like it was yesterday.
It’s a choice, every day.
It’s your choice.
It’ll always be your choice.
Life gets so busy.
It tempts us.
It pressures us.
To think we have no choice.
I do. We do. You do.
But…
It’s up to you.
You should know, in case you don’t, I respond to every single comment and email you send. Yesterday’s Lane 8 post had a comment from occasional Guest Blogger, Skip.
Here’s the reply I just wrote, it feels post-worthy:
What if, instead of your outward appearance, you thought of your “comeback” in terms of showing your daughters that getting older doesn’t mean we have to compromise an active, healthy lifestyle?
That getting older isn’t a jail sentence to ill-health.
Do you want your daughters and your grandchildren to be unhealthy when they get older?
What will motivate them to “break the cycle” and be the change, if you can’t, or won’t, do it?
