Get it in

This weeks blog is short, sweet, and just a piece for us to think about as summer roll out and we're all another season older.

I'm tired of hearing people complain about their age relative to whatever activity it is they're complaining about. You're only as old as you feel and act. Age is indeed just a number. This isn't to say grandma should buy a Bowflex and start circuit training - do things within your mindset and physical capabilities.

Too many complain about going back to school because they're too old. Really? Maybe they're just too set in their ways and need an excuse.

Too many complain about being too old to find love. Rest assured sitting on your couch and telling everyone at work you can't find it isn't going to help you out any. You're not too old, you're too set in your ways.

Too old to play basketball? Maybe out of shape, but there are leagues all over your city with different age brackets and levels of competition, just gotta go find them.

Here we are, a few days into summer and some of us are still acting like it's winter and we can't get off our butts to enjoy things. Let's go make some new friends, try some new foods, and be active. Let's stop worrying about what time it is and how we need those hours of beauty sleep (though some of do indeed need beauty sleep, self included). Enjoy what we have while it's here. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow so let's live a little, do things we're affraid of, and make the best of our time. Remember, you only have 100 years. And the earth being several billion years old, we are all just specs of sand on the beach that we call time.
