It is weird how much this struck me....

So I'm sitting here, watching this past week's episodes of Biggest Loser, a show I am only just starting to enjoy and become a fan of. While I believe in Jillian's abilities as a trainer I don't think I would ever accuse her of being overly poetic or poignant. However, she just said something to one of the players that made me sort of wake up. I may not have the exact quote but it was something like...

You will spend 100% of your time on this earth in this body.

Look, I know this is about as obvious a statement as a person can make, apart from maybe "The pope is catholic" or "The sun is hot.". I know it was far from ground breaking but it is sometimes the really obvious things that escape you. I think this is one of those things for me, and having it sort of clicked in my mind... it gives this a different perspective. It isn't like a pair of shoes, that once it wears out I can buy a new body and  I don't want to be stuck wearing a pair of ratty shoes with worn out soles and broken laces for the rest of my life. The changes I've made so far, and the determination I have to continue on this new path, I think are all going to make sure I will be well shod for life. At least as far as I have control over. ;)
