What a weekend. ⚽️
Now last year I had a goal of completing a marathon and did that with a lot of commitment to healing. This year my goal was and still is to complete a chin up. I know not awe inspiring as the last but still it’s something I have never achieved. By doing so I feel it will show gratitude for the healthy mind and body I have continued to nurture.
This weekend may not have been the weekend I achieve that amazing feat BUT I will say with as much excitement as my fingers will allow me to express. I got back onto a soccer pitch and played a sport that has always held a place in my heart and good memories. Yes at 41, I am back on a soccer field playing co-ed soccer and damn it felt good.
Don’t ever think because you have entered a new chapter in your life you have to leave all the ‘fun’ stuff behind. Now with my children and husband cheering me on it felt more amazing than ever.
My youngest even said afterwards, mama it was so great to watch you, you didn’t miss a ball and you kept moving.
Yes baby I keep moving because I am proud of myself and I wish to be someone you can also be proud of.
Move your body, play, have fun and most of all embrace the muscle memory to creative heart filled memories.
