Journal Entry for April 21, 2007 Mood
Saturday, April 21, 2007
Friday was a rough one. Left work a little bit early. Cried a little bit a couple of times while I was there. This stuff can be scary. Not sure why I always blame myself for everything. If only I did this or that,maybe I could walk better, etc. If only I could get stronger, maybe I would just be able to do more. Reminds me of a poem I wrote a few years back.

The Exercise Conundrum

The more it is necessary,
the more difficult it seems.

The more I should get outside to walk,
the less I’d like to be seen.

Exercise provides energy
though it takes some to create more.

Herein lies the conundrum
whose answer we must explore.

Willpower and motivation
are essential in getting things done.

Deciding what is of value
is the key to our goals life-long.

We can value an enjoyable life
or let sedentary sing its song.

If we cannot work out physically,
we can concentrate on our minds.

Life is about the continued learning
and doing while we still have time!
-------------------------------------
Sometimes it seems crazy just to work up the courage to get in the shower and get ready for the day - must be the emotions involved. Everything takes a little longer so it just seems way too challenging just to get normal things done. Wish it were as easy to get a ton of things done in no-time. Still in denial? Again, I'm going to lay some blame on myself - if I were just responsible, I could organize my tasks that take forever and get only the necessary done? So many things that need done and before long, it will be hot here all the time, and I won't be leaving the house much.

Perhaps today I'll find some answers. Maybe I'll force myself to go to the art show I'd love to be able to see. What to do when the legs give out tho. I know I can't stay home and sleep 24/7 but sure would like to sometimes lately. Perhaps this has been a rough week and that is all.
