It was just another Tuesday~waking up at 5:00; driving to the Y on very quiet streets; meeting Jay in the parking lot; class with Scott at 5:30 till 6:30.  We did the usual rolling out  to “wake up” the muscles for 15 minutes; a few lunges and stretches to limber up for the next 45 minutes of core work.  I’m feeling all those muscles now as I unwind & get ready for bed but that feeling pales in comparison to what people all over the country have felt all day long about today’s anniversary.

Dear Lord~thank you for the opportunity to serve others on this day and to be able to reflect on all the good that surrounds us. I know there is still a little cloud of pain that follows many Americans around because of the death of a loved one.  Please help us to find peace and pass it on to someone who needs it.  Watch over those who are still far from home serving in the military.
