Motivation...it hits like a ton of bricks sometime...

The HILL
Lately, I have been less than thrilled to go to the gym and workout.  Do you ever feel like that?  There have been many reasons excuses.  My long list of injuries/pains, the weather, or just simply wanting to have morning coffee on my patio.  The main reason I mention this is because , I forced myself to press on.  It has been beautiful yet unusal weather here in TN for March, but I am not complaining.  Even though I felt less than motivated, I decided to take my little man on an "adventure" to a nearby walking track by a nearby historic war site.  I threw his bike in the back of the car, and off we went.  I packed my ipod, so I could enjoy some tunes while I walked and sometimes jogged behind him.  The temp was about 82 degrees, and the wind was blowing.  We hit the pavement and WOW, I felt the urge to take him to see the "cannon".  It was atop a  beautiful, but HUGE grassy hill, so I was a bit nervous that he wouldn't make it up there. I said, Buddy, you sure you wanna try to make it all the way up there?"  He just smiled at me and said, "Momma, I will be fine, just fine." 
And there it was, M.O.T.I.V.A.T.I.O.N!!  I was fine, just fine.   
      I don't know about you, but do whatever it takes to get 
     you moving.  You never know when your motivation may
     find you.
