It's amazing how very quickly it consumes everything. I am probably going back to Summit so maybe we will get to talk about this but thanks for the inspiration.

It's currently noon here in the Philippines, a nice sunny day and here I am confined in my room, refusing to go out with my friends because I have so MUCH exercises I need to do! My joy is totally limited to whether or not I'm able to complete my workout routine. EVERYDAY. I'm currently reading your book Peach, and it's comforting to know someone has fought through this kind of hell and made a beautiful, wonderful life out of it instead. I'm hoping I'll be that woman too in the future. Thank you for this. I printed out a copy of this particular post today.

You wrote it so beautifully. I'll have to remember that, "Body, what would you like to do today?" :) Hm....what would I do today if my body had a voice? Rest. That is what I am doing!

In so many ways, you sound like ME :-) Hard to think back to where you've come from, but when I do....the tears of pride, joy, and comfort.....they just abound!
