The day was calm, the sun it shined like a Simpson character in the sky, the ground was firm beneath my wheels and the thorny bushes stayed away from me. It has been so very long since my last ride. Bike ride that is to be more clear. And I’ve been itching like an athlete’s jock strap to get back motoring in the plains of the lush Kildare countryside. It’s a peaceful and tranquill experience when your out with nature, sheep shit, soldiers and that fresh breeze cooling you down like an air-condition unit.
- Don’t let physical ailments keep you down, they may get you down and that is ok. Its part of the process, the healing process. I was focused on what I couldn’t do rather than what I could.
- Training the mind to stop over thinking is a hard nut to crack. Sometimes the body wins sometimes the mind wins out. Ultimately trust in yourself and listen to your body.
- Remember life unfolds at the pace it was designed to, it can’t nor won’t be rushed, trust me I’ve tried.
- Depression is a label and a catch all for feeling overwhelmed. Exercise can help this, talking with others, sharing your emotions in a healthy and respectful way.
- Do what makes you happy, we only go around life once, then we need to get off.
- Be kinder to yourself than you currently are.
- Stay awesome!
