"Do everything"

One of my friends sent me this video/song today and it really made me think that I "do everything". I am so blessed to have people like her in my life to pray for me and my family and who think about me when they hear a certain song or see a certain something. I wanted to put this on my blog because I think it relates to a lot of people I know and I love his music. Little did she know that I love his music and listen to his albums everytime I run. It is so moving and very inspiring.

"Do Everything"

Just a little thought about what my running experience means to me!

"Beginner" "Seeing a pattern doesn't mean you know how to put it all together. Take baby steps: don't focus on the folks whose skills are far beyond your own. When you're new to something - or you haven't tried in a while - it can feel impossibly hard to get it right. Every misstep feels like a reason to quit. You envy everyone else who seems to know what they're doing. What keeps you going? The belief that one day you'll also be like that: Elegant, Capable, Confident, Experienced. And you can be. All you need now is enthusiasm. A little bravery. And - always - a sense of humor." - Kate Jacobs "Experienced"">"You know enough now that you don't just have to follow someone else's pattern. Or keep repeating your own. You can break the pattern. Improve it. Perfect it. Change the plan. Adapt and improvise. Make what works best for you. Now your skills will take you wherever you want to go." - Kate Jacobs

True Love....

When I think of love ... I think of roses and red hearts ... quiet walks ... and very soft, tranquil music ... I envision an eagle taking flight on a crisp fall morn ... the first snowflake in the winter ... and the sound of the first robin in the spring ... I envision a glorious sunrise ... a spectacular rainbow ... and stars brightly shining on a summer night ... But most of all, I envision you ... your eyes radiating warmth, joy and vibrance ... and the tender feelings in my heart from your friendly smile. I Love You, Don!
