Understanding Kung Fu for life, health and self defense
Last night the little devils that speak in your ear were trying to talk me into taking a break. They were yelling loud and clear. They worked hard all the way through to this morning to get me to not hit my goal this morning.
As I walked up the hill that headed toward the steep mountain I heard in broad day light the howling of a coyote. For those of you who do not know the coyote is a symbol for being a trickster. As I stopped and stood by the big evergreen tree I enjoyed the howl of this lonely coyote, understanding the message.
It was a morning of tiredness, not wanting to work out and wanting to give in to those evil brats that were trying to take my dedication away. Plus, my legs were burning way to early in my walk up.
I was still going to get up that mountain and work on my forms. The two little devils did talk me into just doing the 3 forms just 3 times and I would stop. So they thought...
As I was walking up I started to feel more awake, I moved slow enough to get the burning in my legs to stop. At that point I pulled my dog Rocky and sped up.
I found a shady spot to workout in, it had a bit of a hill, some gravel and some slippery wet grass. I started with some rotations a few kicks and I was ready to do my forms.
After I made it through my forms, the little devils were in for a disappointment because I found my energy and my positive angels. I not only did I do my forms, I worked on my kicks, added a new kick to work on ( whirlwind) and I worked on one of the forms 3 more times.
The morning sun was beautiful and hot. The smell of honey-suckle was filling the air with a combinations of evergreen, the mountain was showing her beauty, she gave me strength, through her beauty, fresh air and wonderful stereo sound of song birds.
After my workout I drank my tea and had a great conversation.
When the little devils tell you to quit, tell them about the little train that could. This is one person with MCS that is not stopping her life. I am feeling very proud of myself.
Now. I just need to catch up on my farm chores, it seems time is moving faster and I can not work hard and fast enough.
