Good Morning Everyone
The second month of 2012 has come and is all but gone and has been a blur. The new year arrived and said Hello and I said Hello back.
We embraced each other and got busy doing the right things to get healthier. January was good, not great, but definitely good.
February came, and while I cannot trace the change in attitude & motivation to the flipping of the calendar page; it is easiest to say that February has been nearly the opposite of January.
We wake up on a random day and we are so motivated, we have the attitude in place to succeed, and onward we go into the days, weeks and sometimes longer carrying a torch so of desire that we believe will never again be snuffed.
Then after a period progress and with a body that is better than it was not too long ago, on another seemingly random day we awake and that fire is out. We still have the torch in hand, we look at it and know we only need to relight it and move onward again. But we don’t, instead we so easily choose to set it down for a while!
Why is it we so easily put on hold that which we know is important? How come motivation and attitude can seemingly evaporate during a nights sleep?
Even though we know full well we are not well and need to continue working to get well, we choose to stop for days, weeks and sometimes longer doing what is right?
I’m not sure there is an answer to that question, but it would seem if that answer can be found, then I would never again set down the torch which I sit here and stare at this morning.
