Change is Good

I can't sit still for long and I've never been a status quo type person. If I'm unhappy with things, I have to problem-solve. I don't want to be a complainer, but a doer. It's not always easy being me. But then again, if it's easy, then I jump back out of that comfort zone anyway...

Hardworking Word...

So, my word for 2011 is "Stretch" and boy oh boy am I struggling!




I had to put Yoga on hold because my back just couldn't move properly when I asked it to. I've always been a very flexible person, but for some reason, for the past four months, I haven't been myself. That's probably one reason I chose the word Stretch in the first place (or it chose me). I felt compelled to get back my fitness and flexibility after a lengthy struggle with health in 2010.


Well, I'm in physical therapy and am working hard. But every day, I move like I am 85 years old. My Stretch-i-n-g only lasts hours, then I am back to square one. Like a tight rubberband.

I laugh when I look at this photo. I could do this move a few years ago, no problem.

Ugh.

I am trying really hard to ***s-t-r-e-t-c-h*** my ***p-a-t-i-e-n-c-e***.

Stretch Myself My SELF

Yes, my WORD of personal inspiration for 2011 is "Stretch".
My body, my creativity, my mind, my shyness barriers, my patience.

My health and wellness.

I have a rather big birthday milestone coming up

{too soon for me}

and want to like what I see and what I know.

I need to stretch my self-imposed limits. Reach. Strive.
