It's a Sunday morning; about 7am here in Hawaii. I just got through reading Richard Weisser's post When the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak... and immediately had an inspiring moment to share with all of you.
There are times during our lives while we are ‘growing up', that we don't feel that 100% like Richard was talking about. Those times happen more often than not with the physical part of our beings aging wtih creaks and crinkles and our joints not as oiled as they used to be.
He goes on to say, ‘It's strange because on the inside, I still fell like a thirty-something lad full of vigor and stamina.' I thought long and hard and remembered....
Yesterday morning I looked out of the comforts of my home to see what the sky displayed for the start of a new day. It was a gorgeous morning! With blue sunny skies and ....a moon? Oh, yes! A beautiful moon to compliment our gorgeous Pacific skies.
Choosing to look at the positive side of life does not mean we ignore the things that we need to pay attention to. We continuously look at our physical and mental states and make the changes we need to in order to keep growing.....so we don't become stagnant.
Balance is a wonderful achievement in my life. So are the joys of stopping to smell the flowers and looking at the moon and remembering that miracle of watching the television (oh, all those years ago) the first man to walk on the moon.
And all that I know, that I've learned, to get to this point in time, place and space...
That I'm grateful for all those years ago.
