half full, half empty?
Actually neither my glass is just not big enough, that’s how I feel today, a veritable overflow, one of those days when life makes you feel rich and in your heart you just know that if you step around the corner another delight is going to face you.
Why? Well it started with getting out the house one cold miserable day, didn’t want to do it had made a million and fifty excuses why I could not possibly start my day with a brisk morning walk up to the park and back again, then one nasty morning having got thoroughly fed up with myself I did it. Trainers on, water bottle in hand I set off with a determined stride, head up and panted up the steep hill, in through the park gates around the pond and then another hill right to the top of the park.
I hadn’t noticed the blue sky behind the grey, not seen the ducks, squirrels and dogs bounding about until I finally caught my breath wiped the sweat from a very glowing face and felt a ray of sunshine bouncing off my head, London spread out below me glowing in the most perfect morning.
Ever since that day my life changed from a half full struggling glass my cup fairly overflowed with energy & delight, so cheers to fresh air, exercise & of course a radical change of diet that took me from sloth to speedy Gonzales.
I cannot pat myself on the back enough for finally getting my lazy butt out the door, every morning I step out into the wide world wondering what I will encounter, those jobs put off are done before I can blink, nothing seems to be too much trouble anymore & as an additional bonus I cannot find the remote for the TV and what’s more I don’t care.
