Family, friends, health, happiness (the important things in life)

We took this hill today

I spent yesterday running errands with my mom and my son. Despite being stuck in the car all day long, I still feel lucky to have spent the time with them. Before I know it, the start day of my run will be here and I will be completely focused on the steps before me. Yes there is still so much to take care of. But, everything will fall into place and happen the way it’s supposed to happen. There really is no other option. I don’t think there is any more that I could have done up to this point. I am comfortable with the progress of everything outside of my control. To be disappointed or unsatisfied would be to bring unnecessary pressure into my sphere. Mastering each step will be difficult enough. I am placing my trust firmly in the hands of everyone else. I believe that many hands will help carry me to my destination.  

 So today I had the pleasure of taking my son on a run with me. I must say, he did a good job. I think I took him about two and a half miles out with a nice hill added into the mix. We had a few pit stops but overall, he didn’t quit. I gave him the option to stop when it looked tough but he soldiered on. I will carry this memory with me on the road, especially the tough days ahead. I say tough days but no matter what, I will still attempt to enjoy it.  Because I know there is a personal glory in what I am doing. I always say I will find the answers to the universe on this journey. It isn’t that I believe this literally but I do call it my vision quest. Each of us has our own journey to discovery.
