Today I’m another year older. Do I want to pull the covers over my head? No! Am I disappointed that I’ve gained another
year? Hell NO!
I’m not upset about this birthday nor will I be when I turn
40! Why? Because I’m healthier and
happier than I’ve been in my entire life.
I don’t worry about getting older because with each year I feel even
better. I believe this is because I am
cautious about how I treat my body and I understand the importance of eating
healthy to maintain a healthy life.
Earlier I was in self-destruct mode.
I never cared about what I ate or drank.
I didn’t care about exercising and mentally I was drained.
It’s true some people get better with age and I feel that as
I get older I am getting better. I mean
my mom is in her early 50’s and is getting ready to run a full marathon! She only started running a little over a year
ago. I think anything is possible. I watch the CrossFit games and I see the
Masters (aka) older competitors and I’m pretty sure some of them could kick my
butt!
Don’t get discouraged as you get older. Instead take control of your life and be open
to learning new things. Take care of
your mind and your body because you only have one life. You don’t get to exchange it and it was a
gift given to you. Don’t continue to abuse your body and miss out on so many
adventures. Enjoy your children and
playing with them, don’t sit on the sidelines; watching and wishing that you
could play with them. They’re only young
for a short time!
I’m looking forward to another year and achieving more
goals!
