Needed... a little less me and a little more of others

I was riding TRAX home from work today and started to get irritated with the 5-6 kids behind me crying and being loud. Irritation surfacing at the mom's who were likely worn out from the day spent downtown. Then a guy sat down beside me and after a few minutes he struck up a conversation with the 5 year old boy who was swinging on the hand rail. 


The conversation was about almost nothing really, but it made me smile. And I forgot about my irritation and myself for those few minutes. When he got off the train a few stops later, I was still smiling and was much less irritated at the noisy kids. Thank you, Steve, who cleans the tables at City Creek.


Steve and I will likely never meet again; however he symbolizes something right in my world today.

How do I turn 3 days a week into daily?

Something has finally gone right with my health routine... I have one. I am exercising 3 days a week at The Dailey Method Studio. Given that their classes are somewhat limited with respect to availability for my schedule, I cannot fit more than 3 classes in each week. So, my question is, how do I turn that 3 times a week into daily?

I think that one of the things that works well for me in this class is just that, it is a class. There is certain motivation in having others around you doing the same thing. It's not like at the gym where everyone is doing the same thing independently. It is different, connected somehow. It is better.

Again, I ask - how do I turn that into a daily event? Some of my motivation comes from just being around others, so although I have thought of buying a dvd, I am not sure that will work. I may have to give that a try, though, especially since I love how I feel after class.

This dilemma is definitely something that is right in my world! I am glad to be thinking of exercise several times a week or even daily...

Quilt project - "You Are Loved"

"You Are Loved" - variation of card trick block with center heart block. Designed with the idea that birth parents (red) and adoptive parents (pink) will be linked forever by their love of a child.

One thing right in the world is the realization that your sacrifice and love for another is a good thing.
