In years past, the more run-of-the-mill goals of "exercise better" or "lose weight" etc. which are associated with our health haven't excited or motivated me much, but this time healthy living is wrapped up in much more anticipation and promise for me. a) I'm a boomer, and like it or not (ready or not) this will be my decade of aging. I can either go kicking or fighting, or embrace it as new learning and make the most of it more gracefully, so that second option is what I choose! b) Having it the month-long theme for JJL is fantastic, for we have such a great team there. I just know the connection of those two words - healthy, and <em>living</em> - will be great learning in their company, and the best way I can get started immediately. Perhaps you can join us there too? That stick-to-it-ivness is much easier when we enroll others in our goal, and get them to help hold us accountable. Beyond that, it's great knowing they do care about us (or they wouldn't bother holding us accountable at all.) Aloha Kerry, yours is my first comment for 2010, mahalo for visiting!

Getting healthy certainly ranks at the top of my list of goals for the new year. Hopefully I'll have the stick-to-it-ivness to get there! What a great goal for 2010!
