Going for a Walk...

I found that science is really letting me down. It is probably because science is myopic. But, still, I was hoping for a better view of things over the last nearly 5 years...it seems it is all just one experiment after another without an endgame in sight.

I feel, physically, the worst I have ever felt in my life.

Psychically, I am surprised at the detail.

But, I feel terrible.

I went for a walk today and you'd have thought I was carrying an endangered elephant on my back. I was winded and sweaty and generally miserable...in less than 10 minutes. I made myself do the circuit. But, it was a terrible experience.

The best advice was the loving kick-in-the-tail I received before the walk.

Nice to have someone care about me...

Because, my Doctors are letting me down and I am absolutely exhausted waiting for the turn to go forward. My mind is set to run a million miles an hour and I am unable to finish a 1/2 mile lap in under 20 minutes. This is very disappointing because I used to be, in general, a kinda-half-not-bad-athlete. I miss being able to look in the mirror and appreciate the reflection.

It is true what they say about there being a skinny person inside every heavy person...begging to be let out of the fat prison...

My mind says, "be the warrior."

But, my body says, "go back to bed."
