 Alot of people love it when it rains. I am not one of those people. For some reason the rain makes me tired. It makes me get into fits of deep thought. I tend to overanalyze everything when it rains. Today was no different. As I drove home from work in the pouring rain I began to wonder why I work so hard at getting in good shape. It is such a slow process and I sometimes wonder if it is even worth it. At the same time, my mind immediately goes to how I felt a year ago when I was close to 30 pounds heavier. I know how horrible I felt inside. I know how it felt to carry around too much fat on my body. I know how people looked at me. I do not ever want to go back to that. Is it worth the hard work? Yes it is! I enjoy how exercising makes me feel as I do it. I enjoy sharing that feeling with other people who want the same feeling. I enjoy mentoring those who want to know how to get to a better place in their fitness journey. It excites me to read about nutritional issues and body building. I enjoy the topic from A to Z. That's one reason I do it. I get enjoyment from it. I also do it because it helps me to interact with my children. I enjoy being able to keep up with them and their activities. As I carry the 110 lb. bag of jerseys into the hockey rink during every weekend game I get alot of looks from other people. I enjoy being able to lift that bag and carry it without too much effort. I've had others try and they have told me point blank that they gained immense respect for me after making an attempt themselves. The fitness game brings about strength–mental, physical and emotional. It is a strength that can be relied upon even during through provoking weather. |
