I know. It's hard to believe, and while I haven't personally verified it, I admit that unlike the global warning bullshit (I'll get shit from Michael for that one), I believe the scientists when they tell me that the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere is Dec 21.
I also know it may be a bit premature, but I'm feeling spring in the air. I can feel it so strongly I can taste it. I believe it's gonna come very early this year, and even if it doesn't end up so, I'm gonna make it an early spring in my mind.
With each and every passing day the urge to go and ride my bike outside grows in intensity. Normally I can conquer these feelings through my runs, most particularly long ones. With the current situation, that just ain't cutting it.
I had what felt like a decent ride in the basement today, and yet the standard seems to keep dropping. I never ride for more than an hour at intensity, and that feels like enough. I think once outside I will care less about the intensity, and just be able to enjoy.
And after all, that's what it's all about eh?

"For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?' And whenever the answer has been 'No' for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something."---Steve Jobs
... this Jobs' quote kinda hit me. Not in the literal sense of what I think he intended, but rather the hidden message that I don't think he even got. My question to Jobs if he were alive would be, "How many days in a row is too many?" How might his quote have changed if it was his very last day?
It's too late to change much today, but I promise that tomorrow I'm gonna do what I want to do!!

Right on! That is an awesome quote! I really like that one.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the consequences of global warming and the evidence of climate change are all around us! If you "believe" in the days getting longer, then you should "believe" in global warming. :) Not to mention all them scientists with their science and rigorous methods and expertise! :P
