Thank you Susie for the beautiful photograph. I have never been where the world could be covered with golden leaves.
I have always lived in the desert. The desert has its own beauty, but not in the form that many of you have seen and experienced in your worlds.

I never could run. I could walk faster than I could run actually. I use to be a long distance walker. I remember the freedom that it gave me also. I never grew tired then and the only thing that would end the walk is time. Those are very happy memories
for me.

Thank you again young Susie for sharing the beauty that is within you and around you.

hello Susie, it was great to read your post. Getting good numbers make us exercise, but fun and the joy of the moment makes us eager for more. When we concentrate on metrics it can be a sterile experience. Like taking cod liver oil, we do it but we may not like it. Sustainability is the key to a good health maintenance plan. It is best to develop healthy habits the will be an integral part of our life. Making health choices will get you to your goal. Obsessing on calories is one of my pet peeves. I think they are a red herring distracting people from what is important, namely our good health. It is a temptation to sacrifice health for weight loss. If you count your carbs, fats and proteins the calorie numbers will be in range of a healthy diet. When coupled with a regular level of activity that can be done every day you have won half the battle. Enjoy the beauty and share the joy. Best wishes for you and yours.

This is absolutly beautiful.

I love the fall, with its bright colors, and all of the scenery that God has painted with His many colors.

I like to go out and take pics of the fall scenery.

Thanks so much for sharing. Yappy ~_~

Susie -

Thanks for the comment and the great reminder about the enjoyment of the outdoors (and great picture). Someone recently told me that the leaves are always that color, they only choose to show us for a little while each year. It keeps us waiting for more! Keep moving and keep sharing your stories. It helps us all - BP
