Many people would have stuck with their ideals no matter what. And they are built from ideas and not reality. It takes an open person, a person in flow, to accept the new when it contradicts the ideal. <br /><br />There's a bumper sticker somewhere in there.Connie Kleinjanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10078134310874123528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21645043.post-37286800333291014952011-04-12T18:04:51.218-06:002011-04-12T18:04:51.218-06:00You are so right . . . we must all adapt!

We can't always smack the fastball out of the park; many times we need to be patient, keep our eye on the ball, and just make contact. <br />Success is measured in many different ways, and as we adapt, we learn new ways to accomplish our goals with equal success.TeeJayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04801597941539328936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21645043.post-26860290509157344562011-04-12T17:59:52.040-06:002011-04-12T17:59:52.040-06:00Lisa, I learned this the hard way during my traini...Lisa, I learned this the hard way during my training for my upcoming 413 mile GRACERUNNER JOURNEY. I discovered that instant feeling of "I'm not lightheaded anymore" with junk food along three consecutive days of 35 mile training runs! A bag of peanut M & M's and a Mountain Dew were my "donuts!" God bless you on your journey to help others!Chris A. Gillespiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10373179496568400190noreply@blogger.com
