Another day of walking in the heat...excessive heat...but for every sweaty step I take, I think of two things. I am cold all winter and spring long and I cherish and accept the warmth that surges through every last inch of my body. I am warm. Hooray! I have the ability to walk. So many people do not, and so I trudge on...simply because I can. I should. I will. I do. Every step is a victory...a raised fist against the mind cramping "I can't"...
Standing in front of the fridge...the coolness feels good...but only for several seconds. Step back and absorb the warmth again. I look at the food on the shelves. Fresh fruit, skim milk and yogurts and lean meats and good breads...all good...so why do I want a frozen pizza, a bag of chips and anything chocolate?...human nature, apparently...choose what is not necessarily the best for me...everyone has been there. Close the door, close your mouth, choose the better.
