Gratitude changes everything.
He whispered, “Sheāll never overcome addiction.”
She whispered: “She’ll always be overweight and unhealthy.”
I whispered…
“Hello… remember me? My miles have become my guide, and gratitude has changed me forever.”
Seek what you dream about, and be a living story.

Simple sentiments and ruminations from some recent sunrise runs… 
Today waits for no one. Yesterday is over, and tomorrow isn’t promised.
Do the things in the present that make you happy. 
Hereās the non-complicated version:
Wake up… be a kind humanā¦ pound that pavement… repeat
She donāt need fancyā¦ she just needs asphalt.

“Like a small boat
On the oceanā¦
Sending big wavesā¦
Into motionā¦
Like how a single wordā¦
Can make a heart openā¦
I may only have one matchā¦
BUT I CAN MAKE AN EXPLOSION”
And I donāt really care if nobody else believes…
’cause I still got a lot of FIGHT left in me.ā

You have one lifeā¦ one chanceā¦ one dream to leave a legacy. How you wake up and act today will set the stage for your life tomorrow.
DoI have regrets? Yes. Do I stumble with my choices sometimes? Absolutely.
DoI know that I will never allow certain people, places, or things to be responsible for the detrimental navigation of my own happiness?
You bet your @ss I do.
Today is my day and yoursā¦!!
Donāt politely tell this world who you are. SHOW THEM.
I promise you, someone is watching. We have a choice, we have a say, and we determine who we will become.
Amen and amen!

One womanā¦
One mindā¦
One beating heartā¦
Never ever again to settle for less than what feeds my soul.
Do I pray for this world? You bet I doā¼ļø
Am I going to just sit back and let the world happen to me? Hell noā¼ļø
Stop whiningā¼ļø
Make your bedā¼ļø
Make good foodā¼ļø
Lace ’em upā¼ļø
And go scream it from the rooftopsā¼ļø

To Whom This May Concernā¦š¤š¤š¤
I got asked today: “Why do you do it? How can I do it, too?”
The answer lies deep within the reflection in the mirror.
Maybe youāre tired of pretending, like I wasā¦
Maybe youāre done with people pleasingā¦
Maybe youāre scared of the unknownā¦
Maybe youāre scared of the knownā¦
Maybe youāre fed up with toxic crapā¦
Maybe youāre done with fear and shameā¦
Maybe youāre overwhelmed with realityā¦
Maybe youāre too far gone with fantasyā¦
Whatever it isā¦ donāt let the hard days win.
Lace the sneakers, pedal the bike, swim the pond. Commit to something greater than negative naysayers. Light the matchā¦ fuel the joy and spread that sh@$ like wildfire! š¤
