Strength Within You
Been dealing with major stress in my life and knowing I am a strong woman I find myself losing my strength and fire. These days all I have is faith. Faith is a very strong word if you really FEEL it. I’m glad I have this site to access because I have made some great friends on here that have given me strength on days I really needed it. And of course the truly inspirational stories.
Today I woke up with fresh determination that I haven’t felt for a while. I have such high goals for myself but I have to shovel all the **** in front of me first.
Purchased new shoes yesterday and ready to get back into running. I need the fresh air, view of the mountains and sun on my face. I need to feel alive. It has been much too long.

Without faith, nothing is possible and with it, everythng is possible. Glad to hear you have that determination back. Shovel it all out of the way and blast right through it. Have a great day.

About 20 years ago I figured out that I absolutely love life. I can honestly say I haven’t had a single bad day, ever. I love walking outside and knowing that I’m free. I love knowing I can do whatever I want, whenever I want. Sometimes I’ll eat a donut just to prove it, LOL! Yeah, stress comes and goes such is the nature of the beast. Sounds like you’ve already figured that out.

Mucho respect to you fir pushing on. Reaching goals & staying at it is not about motivation……..which is an emotion that goes up & down with life. Motivation often FOLLOWS action, not precede it. It’s determination & persistence that keeps us going.
Hope ya have a great run w/ the beautiful mtn view. (Sniffle……a little envy here….)

Your post reminds me to go get new sneakers.

Great attitude as that often is the only thing we can change in some situations.
…and II’m jealous of the Mtn. view as well. Walking/jogging in the concrete jungle adds to my stress instead of taking it away.
