Beginning . . . . Again, the New Commitment

Life seems to be new beginnings.  I may actually understand that event in the Young Women's program, finally!

I have felt like I my body has fallen apart since the daily walking stopped.  The pictures are the proof in the pudding.  I am walking today and at least 5 days each week.  

• I want to feel good again, 
  
• sleep well at night, again, 
  
• have energy, again,
  
• to be able to tie my shoes comfortably, again,
  
• have a good lap for holding grandkids, again,
  
• show respect for the body I was blessed with, again,
  
• show my appreciation for my blessings from God by being His hands, again,
  
• to wear the way cute capri pants (flowered)  I bought last summer at the end of the season this year!

I have finally realized that I seem to have passed over a thresh hold and will have to be more more mindful of caring for my physical well being.   It seems selfish, but after the way I have gone downhill, I know it will not be selfish to keep myself functional for my family and myself.
