Yesterday I did something out of character, and wrote an extremely personal post on Facebook.
It was prompted by the fact that yesterday marked 4 years since my Mom passed away.
I was incredibly nervous to press that submit button and put it out there for all of the internetz to see, but I’m glad I did it.
As it turns out I have an amazing network of family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances, and strangers. My heart is bursting with gratitude from all the likes, comments, messages, thoughts & prayers people sent my way after taking the time to read the post.
Loss is a universal feeling and considering that yesterday was also Memorial Day it seemed to me that a lot of people may have also been feeling loss just as acutely as I was.
Sometimes sharing your feelings and getting support & positivity back can be more healing than being strong and silent.
Workouts
Now on to my workout check-in for last week. Even though Amanda over at Run To the Finish has decided to put the #bestfoot linkup on hold for now I’m stilling to call this my #bestfoot check-in because she’s inspired me with that hashtag ever since last fall when I signed up for Holiday Bootie Buster Challenge aka HBBC.
