GooooooooD MooorrrrnnninnG!!! Something i hadn't said to myself in a long time... the last few months had been quite dull at work.. and the mind had consequently slowed down and become lethargic... 2 weeks ago i decided to kick butt- my own lazy one to begin with *grin*... well charity begins at home doesn't it... realised that each day was bringing a new layer of fat around the middle and something needed to be done asap lest come the time for 3rd degree torture- THE GYM!!! Have been going for morning walks ever since...

the first day was a bit lazy and reluctant... but when i hit the track i realised what a huge favor I'd done myself.. 5 minutes after i began my walk, i saw one of the most beautiful scenes I've seen in a long time... a hundred pigeons taking off in flight at the same time... every morning there is a sack of grains that comes from the provision store nearby and is opened out right in the middle of the track for the pigeons to feed on.. its just made me feel totally alive and awake..

today i look forward each day to hearing the flap and flutter of the wings... smelling the fresh air laden with a bit of dust from the pigeon flight... noticing the blooms on the trees in the morning... watching the few people who come to the track everyday.... i wouldn't trade any of it in for the closed confines of a gym... well at least not till the rains at least... then mebbe..... :)

P.S. Have been searching for an image on the net that would do justice to what i see each morning.. but haven't found one that connects. Will prolly click one myself one of these days and put it up... till then use ur imagination.. that's even more beautiful...
