sore in my legs and shoulder workouts today...
did fasted AM cardio for 50 mins (30 mins stairs + 20 elliptical)

for the rest of the day i've been relaxing, reading, sat on a balcony for about an hour, breathing, meditaing.... felt so good - i need to do that more often. then did some house cleaning and cooked for Denis - I love cooking for him, and cooking in general... I even thought about working in food industry - I find such pleasure and calmness in cutting, chopping, mixing, etc..

Is it just me or is it with most people: i start something new (this journal for instance), get super excited, for the first few days/ weeks, and then.... slow down... pause.... or completely forget... and only a few days/ weeks later realize that i've forgotten about it??? is it lack of discipline? i know some people keep a journal for their whole entire life... for me - i can't even tell you how many journals i've started... is it bad???

Dear StairMaster:
I had a date with you this morning, and promised I'd come back later today for another date, but... another set of stairs caught my eye... they don't move, they don't have a blue display, they don't have comfortable railings, they don't have a book and bottle holders - they are plain ol' stairs to my apartment...
I had a 45-minute date with them, going up and down, breathing fresh air, breathing hard... it felt really good, though i have a feeling tomorrow i'll be telling you how much i love you for not kicking my butt so hard... or i might tell you that i'll have to keep you as a back-up plan from now on...

My Dear new Stair friend!
I have such joy spending time with you, but I am hurting so bad today - thanks to you... We've had a couple of dates so far, and I can't wait to go on another one... but... My legs barely bend and my calves feel like they're filled with melted metal, every step is painful, yet I kind of enjoy this pain... but at the same time it is the pain that keeps me away from you... - i know you're right there, right outside my door, but i can't... i can't just come to you and take slow steps, i want to be able to run you up and down, breathing hard, sweating... i hope you're not mad at me for ditching you today, but i think we might have an even more exciting date after a day of recovery... thank you for everything!

Dear Peanut Butter!
First of all, I want to tell you how much I love you - you're soooo good, by yourself, and in everything you paired with! I know you're good for my body as well but the problem is I "lose it" every time I see you. Once the jar is open and the smell of you hits my nostrils - all my other senses get lost: I just want to drown in your creaminess, your flavor, your smell... i get intoxicated by just thinking of you. This love is out of control! and I don't understand why....
I remember the first time I met you - about 10 years ago (i had no idea about your existence before then). From the very first spoon, I fell madly in love with you, I lost control with you multiple times, especially when you were dressed with a bit of grape jelly (at that time)... oh my gosh! i was crazy about you! and then, i don't remember what happened - it's like a black hole in my memory - but i went from loving you to hating you. I couldn't stand even the thought of having you on anything, in anything or especially by yourself... and that's how you disappeared from my life for about 7 years. I forgot about the strong feelings, I forgot about the chaos, I simply forgot about you... And then you came back... You came back as something I thought I needed and this time could control.. And I was able to just use you for what I needed for a little bit, but then your strong flavor personality took over my feelings again... And I'm back to crazy, insatiable appetite when I just hear your name... why???? WHY are you doing this to me? Why can't we just have a calm steady relationship? Why can't you just be in my life and not torture me? I want to get rid of the drama between us... Please?

Dear Future!
I see you, but in so many different ways. You change every day. I know what I want from you, but my wants change from day to day and so does my vision of you, Future! I love the Present, I enjoy living it, feeling it! And I know that you, Future, is basically the Present, maybe with a few modifications. I guess I'm just working out the "modifications" in my head. But I know I'm in control. And because I love the Present, I know I will love the Future just as much, maybe even more!

Dear Present!
You are my present! Literally! My gift! The gift of life! I love you more than anything! I thank God for this gift, for the Present! Thank you! Sometime there are moments when I feel lost, frustrated, sad, angry, mad, and they're all a part of you, Present! But there are many, many more moments when I feel happy, I feel love, I feel loved, I smile, I laugh, I move, I breathe, I live, I see, I smell, I hear, I taste, - I LIVE!!! And that's what you are, Present! And for that I'm so grateful!
