How lucky are we?

Today on the day after Christmas, I am feeling so blessed. I am on a trip with my family in sunny California, we are all healthy and happy.

As my mother-in-law and I were doing a hard workout this morning, I started to get down on myself. I felt tired, slow and out of shape… But then I took a minute and looked around me. I saw blue skies, palm trees and thought “how lucky am I?” I have heard, and often said, that we don’t HAVE to work out, we GET to work out. And immediately my mental state changed.

In this second year of the pandemic, and heading into 2022, I chose to be grateful for my health, the health of my family and all of my loved ones. I don’t really do New Year’s resolutions, but I do resolve to be more grateful this coming year. We never know when our health will be compromised, let’s choose happy!
