Reminder: Don't Beat Yourself Up!

While in Victoria, a group of us decided 
to climb Mt. Douglas before the wedding. 

850 feet up, 

 

(and a whole lotta perspiration later)

I was all sorts of upset with myself for feeling so out of shape. 

 {insert me trailing behind here}

Once we were off the rock and back onto the trail, 
we decided to run the rest of the way downhill. 

While catching our breath at the end, a beautiful woman in her 70's walked past us with a big smile on her face and said, 
"Ahh, to be young, fun, fit and foolish!"

Sometimes it's nice to put your life 
and physical well-being into perspective :)
