Yes, it has been a while. The holidays kept me busy and, to be honest, I've been wondering how to restart this blogging thing. Then the idea of restarting got me focusing on the New Year how everyone tries to restart. That led to me restarting exercising. The next thought process was how to carry over the restart of exercising, with meaning, to my personal life. In thinking about that, it circled me back to exercising and how my attitude toward that has changed.
My husband will laugh as I admit that exercise really has changed me. I have come to discover what I always thought were myths about exercise, are tending to be true with me. I DO feel better, I DO relate better. I'm not as tired, have more energy, and am more positive. I didn't think that these things really would happen. But they have. With having taken a month off and now restarting in the last 2 weeks, I can see that these things hold true for me.
The nice thing is that this can carry over to my personal life. I am trying to have new resolve on how I face things. I trying to have a refreshing attitude to the daily challenges that come with being a mother of four. I'm trying to keep in mind that God has equipted me with, not only, the physical strength I need to exercise, but with the emotional grace and talents that go along with carrying out my duties.
It isn't that I am trying to be some great philosopher, but for me, I find great comfort in seeing parallels from one area of my life to another. I feel that if I can have a goal and be motivated in one area that hopefully I can carry that spirit over to another in hopes to be come a more well rounded person.
