Within 5 minutes I knew. It all came together in this glorious rush of emotions and energy and I knew right then that I wasn't going to be smoking again. Being able to actually feel the the difference in my breathing and stamina was so inspiring and it was the last missing piece of the puzzle.
For the first time in years I could see myself getting back in shape and finding joy in workouts like I used to. I hate that my right ankle is still messed up though. It doesn't ever seem to be healing (it's been almost 2 years now) and I'm getting my first glimpse into the sadness that people must encounter when their bodies just don't work like they used to. I really hope I'm not at that point, being only 28, but this damn ankle just won't heal.
But enough about that, today really was a great day and I'm just going to stay positive and keep hoping that my ankle will get better and I can start hiking again. A part of me really wants to try that 30 day Sierra hike and/or climb Mt. Whitney again!
Just for online diary's sake, I want to make sure and mention what an amazing day I had yesterday working with Dad's business. I spent about 8 hours straight working on updating his LinkedIn sites, making a new Facebook page for his business plus fleshing out a few other things we'd been working on. It really felt great to be working with him and there is no doubt there is a lot of potential for growth with his company. Lately I've been so worried about what I should be doing with my life but maybe this is it? I can't wait to see :)
