Green Bananas






It’s that time again….New Year, New You!  New chances, Fresh starts.  New Beginnings, New Challenges.  New Dreams, New Adventures.  Get Healthy, Lose weight.  Smile More, Worry Less.  Stop Smoking, Save Money.  Stress Less, Exercise More.  Be Positive, Laugh more.


It’s all over the News, Social Media, and the magazines in the check out lines.  Try this diet.  Try this new product guaranteed to take away your pain, problems, wrinkles, husband, (just kidding.)  These are all great ideas but let me add my thoughts to them.


 As a Fitness Instructor of course I’m going to encourage to take care of yourself physically by exercising for 30 minutes, 3 to 5 days per week.  That’s doable, right?  Next you need to take care of your brain.  Yes, read, learn, do hobbies, but also take the time to relax, meditate, breathe.  Get a massage, practice Yoga or Tai Chi.  Take a walk, look at the stars, or watch the sunrise, preferably over the ocean.  And last, but not least, take care of your soul.  In these Golden Years, we don’t buy green bananas, just in case were not around when they get ripe. HaHa!  In all seriousness, you never know.  So I encourage you to “Let Go and Let God.”  He’s got this all figured out.  Matthew 6:27 asks us, “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life.  Go to church, forgive an enemy, or your son in law, reconnect with friends.  Don’t just exist, Live!  


You are never to old to set another goal or dream a new dream.
