Achievement so important

[RoyceNewton]

G'day ms family, hope YOU are doing well today and looking at the day with rose-coloured glasses. Never doom and gloom and a sense of hopelessness. There is always hope. Dream the big dream reach for the skies.

To all of YOU that congratulated me on my backward walking yesterday, THANKS. It was a goal I had, something I wanted to achieve. I achieved it as silly as it was but I did it and you were the only people that I thought might understand. YOU did and I am glad of that, as I am impressed and glad for all of your achievements throughout your days. Sometimes just getting out of bed is an achievement and few understand what a big deal that is. Take every win that YOU can, whenever YOU can. Do not measure yourself against others. Just do, and continue doing. this is a slow downhill path we walk. Realize that and accept it. Do not sprint to the finish line, take small steps and move slowly. Try to be last at the ms finish line/

Good luck with your day today and smile,

Royce,

Your ms writer.

2 things: Sprinting and Downhill Just wanted to say, sprinting is not something I've been able to do in a very, very long time. I consider myself a slow and steady tortoise. Now going downhill. I've noticed that I always want to go faster down hill than up hill. It's not because it's easier downhill than uphill, but it's because my bladder ALWAYS seems to send off a 30 second urgency warning it's time to pee. So of course, it's off to the races towards that next bathroom on my GPS in my brain! Somehow, even under those conditions, I still can't get to anything even wildly close to anything like a sprint. And if the nest bathroom on my GPS shows up too far, it is always helpful to turn around and go back uphill? So is that going backwards?

[RoyceNewton in reply to MarkUpnorth]

I am impressed that you get a 30 second warning, I usually get an oops guess what I just did. No biggie really as I do not leave home without my trusty mens depends on, and I mostly go places where I know where the bathroom is. Kinda limiting but it is the price that I pay.

Royce, thank you, again, for this positive and encouraging post! I love the thought of being the last in line to finish the race...so far, I'm on track to do that, but I will see them all again in Heaven. Linda
