That's one of my favorite lines of all time. How revealing and secretive all at the same time, right? It's a line from a bluegrass song called Good Corn Liquor by The Steeldrivers. If you're a bluegrass fan (or even if you aren't) you should check it out.
So driving in to work this morning I was trying to get my second wind. I have been feeling like things aren't right with me and I am trying to fix them. Or fix me. I can't figure out which at the moment isn't right... I had my iPod on and this song came on. Every time I hear it I get a little daring. That wild hair stands straight up and all I can think about is being more alive than whatever I am doing right now. It doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to break any laws. Then again it doesn't mean I won't either. It's just this feeling I get deep down - wanting everything life has to offer.
Tonight is "hotel" night for me. After work I am going to use the fitness center here at work to walk on the treadmill. It's difficult to want to do too much, but I know realistically I need to start slow. So my goal today is to walk 1 mile on the treadmill. That doesn't sound like much but it's a start and I shall work up from there. My goal is to do the same in the morning at the hotel's fitness center - walk for 1 mile. Then I will shower and come to work. My goal is to do that for one month - walking 2x a week on a treadmill. Depending on how I feel next week I will increase the distance.
I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday!
sounds like a good plan to me. i know exactly what you mean because certain songs do that for me too.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard, but I need to shake up my routine and get more active. I am sure when the weather changes the outside activities with the horses and taking care of the place will help a lot! So good hearing from you!!
