Today, I am thankful for the physical strength and quickness required to rock climb.
How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were? ~Satchel Paige
Forty is the old age of youth; fifty the youth of old age. ~Victor Hugo
S, T and I slipped away for a few hours to rock climb in Red Rock Canyon. The weather was perfect and the rock in good shape.
Most people are surprised when I tell them I rock climb. My 52-year-old, 105-pound petite body belies my overall strength (I use to be a gym rat, lifting weights like a mad woman). This afternoon, I completed four strenuous climbs up a rather challenging route.
Yes, it's true. I'm not getting older - I'm getting stronger and better!
For this blessing, I am grateful.
Amen.
