Running is My Therapy

Maybe you’re lost, or maybe you’re on your way to finding the freedom of your soul.

Maybe you’re longing for change… or maybe you’re just right where you need to be.

Either way the more grateful we are… the more blessed we become.

This road… this blacktop… these moments, are my teacher…

My saving grace and I am forever thankful 💛.

Strength and a Smile

I can’t think of a better way to start my Monday other than with strength and a smile.

Wake up joyful on purpose and declare your intentions…

We don’t get there by wishing… we get there by doing 👊🏻.

Let’s get it 💙.

Take Me to My Element.

Be present. Sleep. Eat well. Break a sweat. Move fast. Then slow down. Journal. Read more books. Pay attention. Pray. Love. Repeat. Resume. 💛

Put her feet on this pavement for this will forever be her element ~ ss

Sundays are the best…

I Know It’s Good.

“Pain throws your heart to the ground

Love turns the whole thing around…

I know it won’t always go the way it should…

But I know the heart of life is good.”❤️❤️❤️ ~.

Healing Journey.

Heading out to be in nature. Nature is the one place where we can be ourselves. There are no time constraints, no phones ringing, no emails. It is a place where we can set aside just for moment in time all the things that weigh us down.

It is here where I appreciate what my creator has given me. Nature offers me hope for my future, and steadies my faith in this crazy world.

Above all… I set out on this 10-mile hike with gratitude. I am here for a purpose. Whether it be big or small, I am making a difference in the lives of beautiful people. I choose who I am in this moment.

Never underestimate the depths of your words, the intense power of a smile, and how a little kindness can become someone’s first stepping stone of healing.

Be kind today…🖤

Choose Happy.

For those of you struggling to seek self-joy or self-empowerment… here goes it.

Our power within awakens each day with us. It is our thoughts that can destroy us. Choose happy on purpose. Choose balance.

Choose flexibility over rigidity. I remember asking myself… Why me?

I asked that question a thousand times… until I got still enough to really seek the answer. My struggles, my hurts, my lot in life was a tool. A tool to teach me grace, humility, strength, and freedom.

Negative people suck. Naysayers, manipulators, and evil doers are at every corner, every stop light, every open door we enter through. Greet them with a few things they can’t stand: contentment, happiness, and a heart full of joy☀️.

Challenges come, but be victorious in today. Clear your mind, have a little talk with your thoughts, and be better…

The Road is Your Teacher

I look down my long beautiful county road this morning. It’s the same road I have run for years although today something is different…..my perspective.

This road has taught me so much about myself. It’s taught me patience when the answers won’t come fast enough, it’s taught me appreciation for the beautiful place I get to call home.

It’s taught me to value myself, and to always trust my gut. It’s taught me humbleness, and that no matter what there is purpose in each step on this pavement.

Your road is a teacher. Learn from it today….then take what you know and gift it to someone else. Someone is watching you… show them greatness 💛.

Mountain.

The climb in any journey is filled with uneven pavement, unexplored trails and pathways, and unexplained moments of both sorrow and joy.

I can’t stay stuck or complacent. I must wake each day hungry for change, thirsty to arrive at the doormat of peace, and eager to be a leader not a follower.

Seek to move mountains. Train to fulfill your greatest potential.

Do not settle for anything less than what brings you victory.

The summit of life reveals beauty and satisfaction… but it’s the climb that tells our tale of both resilience and determination. 🖤

Running on Hope.

Answer ➡️ ABSOLUTELY FREAKING NOTHING!

Hope begins…

Hope lives….
