Despite the blasted rain, I still walked to the gym on my lunch break today. My trainer did not take it easy on me as he presented me with a 500 rep challenge. 50 reps (fast as you can) of each of the following: squats, push-ups, lat pull-down, floor press, leg raises, bicep curls, tricep pull-downs, incline sit-ups, stationary lunges, and mountain climbers. I completed the circuit in 26:24. He said the goal is one day get to the 1,000 rep challenge.
But, on my walk back to work (inspired by some Imagine Dragons singing in my ears) I come upon an older fella walking in the rain too...aided by a cane. I said, "Good afternoon" as I passed him. He replied with the sarcastic, "Lovely weather we're having" to which I said, "Well, at least it's not snowing." But then he said something that I'll carry with me the rest of the day: "At least we're alive to enjoy it."
Yeah...that's it. I have legs that can carry me where I need to go. Both eyes that can see God's world. Arms that can hug and hold my babies. A heart that beats with love and with strength. I vow to honor these things I've been taking for granted. Legs...I'll make you stronger and faster. Eyes...I'll hike to places so you can see even more amazing sights. Arms...I'll make sure you always have the strength to carry your little ones. And Heart, I will continue to exercise and give you the strength to keep me alive and able to enjoy the rain showers, too.
