I did it...

2 Miles in 30 minutes, I'll know I'm improving as that time goes down. I got a bit discouraged after the first mile, but I kept pushing and I did it. A little change at a time adds up, I think it's the instant gratification factor that makes people give up. 

I decided to focus on getting the house in order instead of doing homework this morning. That way I can devote more time to it tomorrow.

I have been having a lot of flashbacks lately, of things in my life that were not so great. I WON'T let that get the best of me though. I'm using that to motivate me. Every thought that makes me angry, I used that energy to do something positive either for myself or somebody else. For every thought that make me sad, I may cry for a minute, but I take that energy to do something that will make me happier in the long run. I am a woman on a mission, out with the negative, in with the positive. I thank God for being so merciful, and I will make a better effort to count my blessings daily.  Here's a photo from the beauty I experienced on my run, I'm even grateful for that. The Lord saw fit to make flowers shower down from the tree's as I ran by. I must truly be special to Him.
