serenity now!

sitting on the deck looking at the koi pond.. just changed the filter - had a lot of problems with the pond pumps this spring - my brother once came to visit and as I went from task to task required to maintain the garden, he pointed out that I spend an awful lot of energy creating a relaxing environment, but I rarely sit back and relax - hmmm -

riding home today, my legs felt really good, but I had a sharp pain in the chest that wouldn't go away, so I kept the heart rate below 140 as much as possible - probably heart burn - of all the muscles I stress regularly, I've got to believe my heart and lungs need a full recovery because they get stressed daily

So, tonight I try to relax
