The New Year has brought with it many changes in my life not the least of which is the reality that I am yet another year older!
Yes, another year older and not a whit closer to my goal of "immortality!!"
"Immortality?" you say? Why not? Just look at some others. Jack Lalanne for example. He is only one major example of someone who has fought the fight and continues to win. He does the things that allow him to live a long and vital life.
I'm not talking here only about longevity. Many people are able to live long and productive lives but so few actually thrive.
When I was in my twenties I lived in a boarding house for "gringos" in Mexico City called Casa Gonzalez. There I met a "young" lady who was over 90. During her lifetime she had been a nurse, a teacher, a mother of three, and had also owned, at the age of 72, a restaurant! When I met her she spent her time between Mexico City, Seattle and Costa Rica. She walked two miles each day and never ate anything that might be detrimental to her health.
Now that's thriving! How exciting!
So what do I do now?
Keep getting out of the sack in the morning and getting my chubby little butt out the door as often as I can. At least three to four days each week is my goal. More is better.
What have you decided to do to better the quality of your life? And don't forget. We're not looking for just a few "resolutions." It's the "reality/gut check" that we're need here.
Anything else is just words.
