Strength

Read this on a FB wall and found it very profound. So, I'm sharing it here.

"Strength isn't really about the number of kilos you press, but about the number of people you lift and inspire"

So, so true, eh.

I've lost count of the many folks who've inspired me to push myself beyond my comfort zone, who reminded me that fitness is a lifelong mission. Not a short term goal to lose weight.

Sustainability above all else, they tell me. "If you cannot sustain it for the long term, don't waste your time."

Then there are those who come to me telling me that I've inspired them to love themselves more and work hard at getting fit. Some made it a lifetime practice, some lost steam after a few weeks/months. I never push them to do what they themselves don't think is important enough to sustain. What's the point, eh.

So to those who've lifted me through the years, thank you from the depths of my being.
