In my youth, I used to gain freedom from a dysfunctional household, by riding my 10 speed bike on long, country road rides! I would make a promise to not get off the bicycle, no matter how high the hill! I would ride side to side, using my powerful legs, and make it to the top!
What a feeling of accomplishment! My legs would be rubbery from the effort, but I DID IT! I am short and stock, of Hungarian Magyar background. I have a strong immune system and I found bicycle riding to be my strength!
Years later, I became an avid walker. As it happened, over the years, I overdid it. BUT! I found out, I CAN still walk and ride (now at age 55), I just have to take it easy!
I love getting up in the crisp, early morning air, to ride my bike. Just before the sun comes over the horizon, when the sky is streaked with an interesting array of cloud cover. The sky is peach, pink and blue grey streaked with vibrant color. AWAKE! It is beckoning! AWAKE! It’s a new day! A day for a PHresh Outlook!
As I rode my bike around the empty parking lot of a business next door to my home, I thought of something fun. I counted my 10 lap bike run with fun! May you use this for your activity counting!
LAP ONE – WHAT FUN!
LAP TWO – WOO! HOO! LOOK AT YOU!
LAP THREE – HEE HEE – I AM RIDING EASILY!
LAP FOUR – I’M GONNA ROAR! AND DO SOME MORE!
LAP FIVE – AIN’T NO JIVE!
LAP SIX – STEADY THE COURSE – NO SILLY TRICKS!
LAP SEVEN – I’M IN HEAVEN!
LAP EIGHT – THIS IS GREAT!
LAP TEN – WELL THEN! WHAT AN ACCOMPLISHMENT!
May you find YOUR SOUL AND BODY’s perfect activity to lift your SPIRIT!
Have a HEALTHY-WEALTHY DAY! GET OUT AND PLAY!
