Finally, Someone Notices

At church this morning, many people came up to me to ask how I was doing. I know that when people ask that, they don’t really want to know. However, fortified with a cup of coffee, I was feeling pretty well and I transmitted that sentiment.

To my pleasant surprise, one lady said I looked good. She said I had good color. At last, those sessions in the tanning booth have finally born fruit.

I tend to be a believer in the adage that if you look good, you feel good. And I want to look marvelous.

When doing my morning pushups I really didn’t feel like doing them I just felt tired. However, I persevered and I did seven – a new personal best.

I’m leaning to think that physical fitness is a help and rather wish I had started out in better shape. In addition, I let my tiredness prevent me for doing all I should have being doing physically. Now I’m playing catch up and it’s not easy, but I see no alternative. As I like to say, “When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.”
