Treadmill bound and winter woes

Has it really been almost a year since I've blogged!? Life has been full of ups and downs, twists and turns, decisions made in my head, yet not followed through. You could say I've been thinking a lot but fear has kept me from jumping in the water!

I am running. Just thought I would say that "out loud" so I could remember what it was that drove me to perfectionism in the first place (saying things out loud)...I'm running and loving every second of every run, every day. 4 weeks ago, I made the concious decision that life is too short not to follow through on what you love to do. When you love what you do, you are truly ALIVE!

Life hasn't been all fun and games, though. I'm tiring of this cold harsh winter weather and long for the sun, sand, and warmth. People ask why I would want to move away from what I've known my whole life. Again, life is too short. I'm not going to want to be on the verge of the end of my life thinking, "Why didn't I take more chances...why did I always just play it safe..."

After my 3.5 mile run on the treadmill, I thought of a good thought for the day...

"My treadmill is not a luxury, it is a necessity..."
