A Running Doc’s Life: Have a Blessed Easter!

Happy Easter everybody! Time to reflect on things in your life, and appreciate all of the good things that have come. We all have our struggles, and setbacks, but we have to keep looking beyond that.

easter quote; “The great gift of Easter is hope.”? Basil C. Hume

If we don’t have hope, then what do we have? Hope can keep us going with everything. You can get work through any struggle in your life as long as you have hope. It is no different when it comes to exercise as well. We can all struggle with this, but we need to keep trying, and hope that things will improve. It is never easy, but the more you do it, the easier it gets. You just have to begin…

The weather has been improving now, and hopefully the last snow for the season was last week. Even with the weather, a lot changes in a week. We had 2 feet of snow, and crazy wind, and now today it is essentially gone, and 80 degrees. We knew things had to improve, or at least we had hope that it would improve. Hope can keep us going with a lot of things.

You have to begin. Once you start, then you need to keep going. Health challenges can make a difference on this as well, which I am now experiencing first hand. I will admit, I do not like it at all! I want to be back to how it was, and enjoying life, experiencing life, and doing activities I love to do. I will eventually get there. I have hope. As long as you have hope, you can accomplish almost anything!

Since I have been having health issues lately, my dog Zeus knows something is not right either. He tends to hang around me more now in the evenings. He is worried too.

But, the one who has been at my side through all of it, trying to help me hang in there, and keep reminding me of hope that it will get better, has been Sarah…My Sarah! This is what a relationship is all about. You help each other when one is struggling. In reality, we are both struggling. This is all new to us, and we are keeping each other going. I have hope that I will be back doing what I love to do later, and be healthy…as long as Sarah is right there with me!

Some of us have health issues that come up and we don’t always get to have a renewal of life. That is what Easter is all about. Embrace it. Have hope! Just like all of us with the struggles we may have, keep trying, keep believing, and have hope!

Have a blesses Easter everybody! Have hope, keep looking forward, and keep moving everybody!
