New Year, New Look . . .
Here we are, headed into the second week of the new year and I have decided to redecorate - both here on the blog, and also my body :-)
I don't generally make resolutions - I've learned over the years that they usually set me up to fail. I operate more in the world of intentions and goals, which, to me are not the same as resolutions.
As I do most years, I have some things I would like to get accomplished this year, but my main focus is going to be on my health and wellness. When you take a good, hard look in the mirror and don't care so much for what you see . . . well, let's just say that I am the only person who can make the changes necessary to care for my body in this next decade of my life.
I was greatly affected by the unexpected death of Carrie Fisher, probably because we were contemporaries. Her death and the serious illnesses of a number of my friends have made me realize just how lucky I actually am.
And so, since I would like to maintain my active lifestyle for as long as humanly possible, I've got plans in place both for eating better, and for exercise. I sit in an office all day long . . . Yeah, not great.
I think the other reason I feel like I can finally catch myself up, is that I just now - after 2+ years of weird health shit - have begun to feel whole again. So I decree that 2017 is all about me. You might want to make it all about you :-) I think it's going to be an awesome ride - I hope you'll come along with me :-)
In other news . . . a year after his death, David Bowie released another song yesterday. It's called No Plan, and it has the same heart-breaking quality of Where Are We Now?
