My Body

My body, oh my body

Nobody knows Thee like me

Vessel of my Soul, Reflection of my Spirit, Conduit of my mind

So tough so fragile articulate and dumb, on fire and numb, what have you become

What is time to me

Through Thee I see, I hear, I touch, I experience so much

I smell, I wonder and feel, I grieve when Thou art well

Home of me, the only place I truly live

Magical machine

To be continued...

Facebook post brings the love

Not like it went viral, but in one day this FB post got 150 likes and over 40 encouraging comments from my friends on Facebook. Totally unexpected as most of my posts get a handful likes and couple comments from family and dear old friends. To be honest the only reason this posts happened was I had the weight room to myself on a Friday evening and felt a little lonely. If there had been anyone in there I would have been embarrassed flexing and taking a selfie. My wife was upstairs on the elliptical so I wasn’t truly alone, but my work outs tend to be a time of isolation. Me, my music, and my routine circuit. I call it the ritual. Cardio warm up, maximum fatigue weight circuit, hydrotherapy stretch, steam. Wam Bam thank you mam! Recently loosing myself in Post Malone medley or letting Pandora mix it up a little and see where it takes me. Usually just under an hour two, but hopefully three times a week. My chronic pain eased, my troubled mind refocused, my lungs stretched and steamed, muscles pumped, heart and Soul revitalized, never have I ever regretted having a workout.
