Time flies! A year ago I was on vacation with my sister in New York City! It is hard to believe that was a year ago. The month of September signals the return to school and the nearing of autumn, both signal a new season every year for me.
The calendar can fill up fast and before you know it another month is over. Some day and one day are not days of the week – what important things do you need to get on your schedule and keep saying ‘one day’ to?
I had thought that I would have so much time to write my blog at least once a week this summer, I apologize. That didn’t happen! Where did the summer go?
I worked and we traveled some and enjoyed a few long weekend mini vacations! I admit, I was not ready for summer to be over, that is the thing with the time and seasons: we aren’t in charge. “Time waits for no man, or woman.” Ready or not school started, a new month began, daylight is shortening and fall is getting closer everyday!
So, what does this have to do with living a healthy lifestyle?
Every day, week, month, season and year should remind us of how quickly time flies. We can’t stop it, slow it or get it back. We plan for tomorrow, for vacations, the holidays, next year, retirement but today is the only day that we can act on.
Stop putting off until tomorrow what you should be doing today. You need to “start” today. Whatever that ‘thing’ is; exercise, new job, education, eating healthy, losing weight, quitting smoking….you need to begin NOW. we have about sixteen hours every day that we are moving. What are you doing with yours? If you are so busy working that you can’t remember your last vacation – start scheduling self care days, weekend get away’s and your next vacation. It is not a plan or a goal unless you are taking steps to make it happen. Your life is your journey. What does that look like to you?
