This morning I got up and I went back and forth on whether I should go for a bike ride. I hadn’t ridden my bike all week. I truly didn’t feel like going, but something told me to push anyway. My initial thought was it was too late in the day and it would therefore be too hot to go (yes, it’s in the 80s here, sigh), since I didn’t get up early and go, but I went anyway. Well of course when I went outside and the sun was beaming on me, I said to myself, “was this a good idea?” Lol. Needless to say I went on riding…

SURRENDER: My Life is Not My Own
I’ve been going back and forth about what I should post about next. I started last week thinking, I should post something for my birthday, perhaps I can talk about what I’ve learned in the past year. Or maybe I can share some golden nuggets I’ve gathered through the years. Every time I sat down to think about it, I came up with nothing. Sigh. I’ve been doing #tbt on my social media (shameless plug: follow me if you aren’t already, a link to my social media pages are at the bottom of this page) every week leading up to my birthday and this week I decided to share one…
