I got that AFTERGLOW!

I got that AFTERGLOW!
Posted April 18, 2008 Comments(6) Edit
Just got home from the gym! I am glistening with sweat, my face is flush…and I feel good, doodeedoodeedoodeedoo, like I know I should…so good, so good, since I found you: )(gotta love James Brown)Really, it was productive. I wogged (walked and jogged) on the treadmill and then did the machines for my arms, chest shoulders. My legs are still sore from the last trip…so I thought I’d give them a rest. Doing an interval training I got off of http://www.podrunner.com/.
I am still a little uncomfortable…feeling extremely self conscience. Saw a young guy looking at me, and then he looked at his friend…and I just got that feeling that I was being made fun of. Y’know what I mean? Oh well. I gave him my best “mother” look as I walked past him, and just decided to let it fuel my love for myself. Not the hate that tries to keep me a very hungry caterpillar.
This book follows the ravenous caterpillar’s path as he eats his way through one apple (and the pages of the book itself) on Monday, two pears on Tuesday, three plums on Wednesday, and so on, through cherry pie and sausage - -until he is really fat and has a stomachache
Remember him? He was a binger: ) And he got a tummy ache. Sunday morning, I guess he repented because, then he ate the one leaf…then he felt better.
I want to learn to LOVE myself, like God does, so I don’t choose to hurt myself with binging…especially when others are hurting me. I want to learn to protect myself by crawling into God’s Crysalis of Love, the quiet, secret place where He will transform me, as only He can and it is in that place…He will give me wings!
I want to be a BUTTERFLY that is free to fly…and glorifies His Name!
