Another busy day ,work, work, work. had lunch with drug reps so i couldn't shoot my bow over lunch. after work i had to go to lowes to get all the material to build a privacy fence tomorrow. i guess i finally got home about 9 then emily and i went to eat supper. so of course i have not had any time to work out today. it was an off day for running so that is good. i have to get up by 8 in the morning to start building the fence and will probably be working all day. sure hope i have time and that i am not too tired to get my run in tomorrow. i am really looking forward to it even though it will the the furthest yet.

one short comment, since i started taking only 1 zyrtek a day i am not nearly as tired, and i don't think it is helping me any less than taking 2, so far.

funny story. today i was making some copies on our new copy machine at work and it got a paper jam. i set my papers on a small table next to the copy machine to try to fix the machine. while we were working on it an employee of mine came by (one i don't get along with that well) and needed the table. she saw my sheet there and just threw it on the floor. i thought to myself, i haven't thought about doing something that childish since middle school and just chuckled. with all of the stretching i have been doing lately it was no problem to bend over and pick it up, kind of felt good. the other day she got jealous of one employee and started making fun of him for getting technician of the month. weird.

so here is my thought for today “To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly.” I think some (probably many) individuals are scared of change. that is so odd to me because as the old and worn out (so old and worn out i almost hate quoting it) saying goes the only constant is change. i would think an individual like that would just fear everything. and i think most of them do. i thought of a saying while i was running the other night "life is not a rut." life was not meant to be lived by being in our comfort zones and doing the same old routines all the time. life was meant to be lived (hence live as a base word to most of the things that have to do with life ex living, lively, lived, etc.). i think those fears of change (especially small ones) are a result of not being fully mature in some aspect. those who resist change, especially when it is made for the betterment of a group are immature, selfish, and scared. now, i am not saying i always accept all change as good. i myself thoughtfully evaluate (and maybe too much) just about every change that i detect in my life. but, if the change is to benefit a group, then why not try it. the thing about change is that it can almost always be changed back. i would like other people's opinions on this. come on, give me some feedback. change my mind. :)
