Looking back and reflecting on my love for healthy living, what is the one thing that could be deemed the prime mover?
I don’t know that sharing this with you will make a difference in your life; but then, I don’t know that it won’t. And it’s easy for you to skip past these observations if you find them of no use, so I won’t feel guilty about wasting your time.
If these words can move you to be a healthier you, I’ll be a happier me.
This body that is me has always been a source of wonderment and fascination. From the complex issues of mind/body interaction, to the amazing intricacies of the cellular machines which comprise our corporeal reality; I am in awe.
I think, therefore I move. I touch and my brain signals that I feel. Soundwaves move a membrane in my ears causing tiny hairs to transfer a signal to my brain, and the glorious laughter of a little child stirs my heart.
I enjoy these capacities to feel and experience life and I feel they are worth caring for. I do not worship this body. And whatever your religious beliefs and understandings; or skepticism thereof, there is nothing stopping you from being as amazed as l.
Amazement, for me, has led to the act of caring for and appreciating what I see as something precious and transitory–my good health.
I wish for you this same amazement…or any other positive emotion that just might be your prime mover.
To Your Healthy Lifestyle,
Steven
