Rant

I grew up in a time when if you wanted something you worked for it. Money, body, home, car, clothes, job, relationship,  food.

I see a different type of person these days.  Its not what can I do for you...its what can you do for me.  Starting wage?  Please.  They walk in to a job interview and expect the cream job with the pay to go with it.  What...you expect me to actually work to earn a paycheck?  Sorry. .I dont work.  I'm out here!

It's sad and I see it and hear it all the time.  No one wants to drive an old beater of a car anymore or wear thrift store clothes or live on a budget.  The new norm is to expect the best, get the best, without working to EARN the best.

And lets talk about the "quitting" factor.  What kind of society are we when we'd rather quit than fix?  Dont like something happening at work? Quit.  Don't like to exercise cuz its painful or you might have to sweat?  Just quit...go to the doctor for a pill...and if they don't give it to you, just quit them too.

Far too many people ..young AND old...need to learn the word patience and work ethic. 
Learn how to appreciate what you have..especially when you pour your heart and soul in to working for it and EARNING it!

Better yourself,  yes....EXPECT it to be handed to you. .NO!

Dry Spell

Sometimes I'm at a loss for words.  (Hey!  It can happen!).  I run out of things to blog about.  Or maybe it's just that I haven't been inspired about anything lately.  As a result, I haven't exactly been burning up the keyboards to post anything on my blog recently.

But I think I'm out of my funk and have some things I'd like to blog about.

So be prepared...my quiet spell has ended.  Lucky you! :)

Stay Tuned

Running of the Pink

Today is the Running of the Pink, a local 5 & 10K run fundraiser to benefit breast cancer.  I've taken part in it before and had a blast.  Unfortunately I scheduled yoga for this morning without realizing The Pink was also today.

I have several friends running or walking it today and my heart is with them.  They run in honor of friends or family that have waged a battle against breast cancer or cancer in general.

My immediate family has not been affected by cancer ..thus far...and I pray that continues.  It's scary and it takes far too many people from this world.

So to those running or walking today. ..I'm with you in spirit.   :)

Sunrise

Mornings are my favorite time of day.  There's something so magical about watching the sun come up.  And with it the promise of good things.

I had a power yoga class this morning at 6-6:45.  Although numbers were small, the energy was uplifting.

Mornings.  I love them.
