Age of Enlightenment

I'm actually having a difficult time composing this post today. My mind is swimming in things that I already knew but haven't used in a very long time. I haven't applied these things to my day to day regime and I find it absurd that I am finding it difficult to do what I need to do to change my lifestyle.

This isn't a difficult concept. We all know the rules. Eat well, exercise and don't stress out. Not rocket science. But hearing what I need to do makes me upset that I can't do it. I know that I shouldn't stress about it but....

I remember when I could run (a long long distance in a go) and I remember when I could bend. These are just memories now and I'm only thirty five. My 90 year old grandmother is healthier than I am.

SMALL SMALL steps.

Tomorrow and I do mean Tomorrow first thing, this house is going to initiate a new schedule. Like we have one now. Stretching, breakfast, cleaning up, chores, maybe yoga or Tai Chi and then lunch. We'll start with just the morning and see how that goes.

The age of Enlightenment happened in the 18th Century and left us with the understanding that opening ones eyes to reason was all that was needed to become Modern. Hopefully Tomorrow is the start to the age of Enlightenment in this household.
