I Remember...

"Don't think too much. There'll be time to think later..."

“Don't think too much. There'll be time to think later. Analysis won't help. You're chiseling now. You're passing your hands over the wood. Now the page is no longer blank. There's something there.” -Dani Shapiro, Still Writing

I remember when I finished my first marathon-18 years old and in memory of a teammate.

I remember when I decided my goal would be to run The Boston Marathon no matter what.

I remember when I first started learning how to drive I was such a slow driver—how will I ever speed up to the 55 mph limit. (no problem now, HA!)

I remember when I worked all sorts of jobs to pay my way through college.

I remember when I was in labor thinking if I can’t push this baby out what will happen?

I remember…is a great journaling technique I learned from Dani Shapiro, bestselling author of Still Writing and many more books!

Give it a go- I remember… (what comes to mind). Feel free to share one of your sentences in the comments.

Poem of the Day:

            RISE & RUN

Five miles 
at 5 am 
What can be better
Sleeping in? 

Maybe—but not
for me 
I’d rather get up
Running is calling me 

Grab my watch 
No coat today 
Spring is finally 
here to stay! 

Rise and run
Is my beat 
It keeps me grounded—  
I am complete
