‘The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.’ Mahatma Gandhi
I have realized that running is sooo much easier when you are doing it with a goal, and this time around it is even better because I am doing it with the goal of completing a race, but also to raise funds for a charity close to my heart. I have actually found myself in this service to others. It has given me a sense of peace, enabling me to carry on when I have absolutely no energy left. I am grateful that I am still healthy and active, and can help others in need through the gifts I have been blessed with! My joy has returned!! (I think it also has something to do with the return of cooler mornings…fall is here, can’t believe it is October already, where has this year gone???) I am even thinking of running the full, instead of the half….but haven’t told Expert2 yet!!
