Good morning! 50 degrees with 20 mph winds… with SUN! Perfect for a 8 mile run.
More importantly, it’s Thanksgiving. Everyone has their rituals today. I like to reflect on what I am grateful for.
I tend to expect a lot from myself. Life is always changing whether I like it or not. Staying in the moment is a difficult task especially since I wanted this, that and the other thing to happen yesterday.
Grateful for #1: Even when life throws you a curve ball, things manage to work out better than initially planned. Five years ago- there was no way you would see me on a bike, or doing anything physically beneficial for that matter. After feeling extreme hopelessness, I choose a different path. Hello hobbies, friends, happiness and a job!
Grateful for #2: People that are there for you, and like you just the way you are. These people, outside immediate family, are hard to find. When you find them, hold on tight!
Off to go visit my Grandpa.
