Can we age without getting old?

Fall hiking in Glacier
Hiking Highline Trail next to Haystack Butte, back in September. Age should not have us wondering if we can or cannot hike through mountain trails.

 

Yesterday’s workout was a great reminder of how being relatively pain-free is one of our bests gifts to ourselves.

i’m “nursing” a shoulder pain that came out of nowhere. It’s likely brought on from repetitive overuse, or from some of the new exercises i’m doing.

As we age and lead less active lifestyles, our muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, cardiovascular system, skin, tissue and so on becomes worn with use and disuse.

Why We Get Old

“We don’t stop doing things because we get old.  We get old because we stop doing things”. — unknown

There is good reason for staying active.  It’s so we don’t get “old”.

Our mind has an instrument that measures our belief system.  It’s pass or fail – it’s the quote above.

It’s up to you and I to make our choice.  Always has been.  Always will be.  Carpe diem!  🙂
