Yesterday was my first day back at Capoeira training. I can say that I am so GLAD my feet don’t feel in pain, but the rest of my body…

Let’s just say that I feel all the muscles I thought I had been working out for two years straight. Well, NOPE! I feel achy and I know that this is the process, but can’t go on about not being in pain. I mean it just wouldn’t be me. Ha!

Anyway… I am here. Present in the moment not allowing time to take me without doing the things I love. I have always wanted to do things, things I was categorized as “crazy” by my mom and possibly other family and friends. I’ve come to embrace my “crazy”. I enjoy my way of seeing life and I don’t want to leave this world before at least giving it a try. I hope that one day my children live life this way.

Never thinking they can’t and if that thought enters their mind, then this will only push them to stick with it and never give up. I love that I am and think like this. I am not sure how many other people in my family think outside the box. A lot of them seem to stay in their own bubble. Don’t get me wrong, I have bubbles I just have many of them. I grow them slow and sometimes have too many to handle, but I make it work.

Life is too short to keep doubting if we will fail at something. I say, give it a try and fail. You won’t know what sparks your interest and makes you feel alive again.
