Uphill…

Sometimes it seems like the hill is a mile long but I know that’s not true. Trying to walk in air so thick you could slice it doesn’t make it any easier. But we’re determined that if we can just keep it up it will get easier one day. Little by little it will be easier to make it up that hill without having to stop and gasp for air. While it’s true that the air is thinner at our altitude it’s also true that trying to take better care of your temple is more difficult in midlife. Some days it seems like there’s no area without vast room for improvement…my house is a wreck, I haven’t kept up with the verse I was trying to learn, the menu board is a week old and dinner is an hour away. Is there some way to escape to a place where life is easier? If I concentrate on one area I let another go.
