I hope you do see yourself as vibrant and fit, that's certainly what I see.<br /><br />"I'm a creature who gets caught up far too easily in webs of habit and obligation; sometimes I get so caught up that I no longer know, with any confidence, what truly makes me happy."

I'll keep in touch though.Susan Tinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11900811284963063686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-76215077093985335072012-02-16T07:59:37.626-08:002012-02-16T07:59:37.626-08:00Oh congratulations!!

But it is interesting, your thoughts and revelations during the run, and that recognition of how your inner vision had not yet caught up to what perhaps others see.
