This world is crazy. There are bad people out there. Horrible people who do horrible things. But...you know what that reminds me? That there are so many good people out there. Good people who do amazing things. An absolutely beautiful world that tragedies like yesterday in Boston should remind us to look around at the things and people we see every single day and appreciate them that much more.
Some runners yesterday lost their ability to ever partake in a marathon again. If they wanted to, could never Crossfit with us crazies. It's awful and makes me angry. Those people, who dedicated hours of their life to training and nourishing their bodies to be able to prepare for 26.2 miles of (in my opinion) pain, would most likely advocate the rest of us to get off our ass every day and run, lift that bar, do that burpee, swing that kettlebell....we have those abilities, every single day. Our bodies are precious; privileges that we might continuously take advantage of are just that...a privilege.
Make the most of each moment, each opportunity and the capable body you were blessed with this morning.
My prayers are with Boston and with the world, today and always.
