“That Word”– I’m saying it…..

 
Forgive me but I am going to say that word. The one we often avoid. The one that makes us come up with excuses faster than we did as teenagers and got home late.

Exercise.

WHY do I avoid “it”? I always feel better once I’ve done “it”. I know “it’s” good for me. I know that if I do “it” faithfully, eventually I will even look better.

Still, I avoid it.

My doctor told me I HAVE to do “it”.

Finding an incentive was proving hard. Apparently adding years to my life wasn’t enough… I needed something shallower. Something less serious. Something less significant…

I needed something to take the drudgery of this exercise punishment and make it cheerful – happy – FUN.

Can you get any happier than this?


I’ve found that once I’ve put on my magic shoes – with magic matching socks that even the most complicated exercise is fun and happy and cheerful!! - okay, so maybe complicated isn’t the right word. I really only walk on a daily basis. But I walk FAST…

I’ve learned that if you feel good about yourself you can tackle ANYTHING!
So, I am faithfully doing “it” every day (well, almost every day…) But - with a cheerful. happy. fun heart.
