The Resurrection

You don't get to choose how you're going to die; or when. You can only decide how you're going to live; NOW. - Joan Baez -

I've become someone I really don't like. I don't know how it happened or exactly how long the evolution took for me to turn into some lazy slob. I fill myself with unhealthy foods, I've gained ten pounds over the winter, I refuse to return to the gym and I'm lazy spiritually.

Funny, I just got my professional life settled and WHAM! I look in the mirror and see that I'm sick. Me, the woman who preaches moderation in everything has turned into someone who enjoys excess - of the bad stuff.

I knew my balances, how the mental, physical and the spiritual all meshed together to make me the woman I am. But like an empty gas tank, I feel drained of fuel. And I'm tired of it.

When I first started this blog, I had a vision of Sophia as:

1. Someone who is kind
2. Someone who helps others and asks nothing in return
3. Someone who is at peace with the world
4. Someone who is not obsessed with personal beauty but takes time to stay healthy and look decent.

Boy have I let myself down. It's time to get busy!
