Huh, this is an interesting opportunity....
I created this blog 10 years ago.
At the time, I had one baby girl and had just completed a degree in Exercise
Wellness. Now, I have five kids, survived my husband going to med school, and
now pushing through residency.
I remember wanting to help others
stay or become health oriented as they raised their families, move on in their
careers, and follow their dreams. In other words, don’t forget to take
care of your body and minds as life takes off! full blast, with the seat belt
barely buckled!
That's how I feel the last 10
years of my life has been. I’m sure that’s how a lot of you feel, like you
accidently sat in a roller coaster and now you’ve upside down and sideways. As
we begin each new year, goals are much the same; lose weight, eat healthy, move
more. And each year, life has escalated exponentially. The priority of
fitting back into that dress has been replaced with other financial, family,
and personal priorities. Which makes sense, we have big issues to deal with!
I love that movie, ‘The Princess
Bride’. I love the romance and chivalry! It does make you think, when the man
with six fingers on his hand says, “If you don’t have your health, you don’t
have anything.” How apparent that has been as I’ve gotten older, and as this
pandemic has reared its ugly face. Before, I wanted to be healthy just for
myself and to care for my family. Now I want to be healthy to survive whatever
the four horseman of the apocalypse wants to throw this month!
So! If you happen to be reading
this, just know that this are my own personal thoughts, just dropping out of my
(likely biased) head. My paradigm is that we reap what we sow. But bad things
still happen to good people, and we can work through it. We can do hard things!
Take that! Corona!
