While being injured can be physically and emotionally painful, that is something you have control over.  That is the time you make a decision. Part of the pain is the loss of a gift you had and you want it back. Choosing to accept your current predicament and focus on the gifts you still CAN do is the path to strength and appreciation.  Getting injured is good. It’s an opportunity to slow down, regroup, appreciate what you do have, and to come back better than you were before.  It’s also a lesson that movement is a gift. Health is wealth.  Don’t pollute that gift with complaints.

Think about this: Imagine you are 85 years old and got the chance to go back in time to now.  Imagine how awesome it would feel to move. What would you do with it?
