Less complaining

I am back for physiotherapy. My foot has all of a sudden started hurting and I have been limping around a bit. It coincided a few days before going on a trip and I guess the phycological side of it is actually more difficult to deal with than the physical side. To actually feel that something as simple as walking around which I took for granted is hampered makes all the difference in your day to day.

I always think of my son and how I want to be a active and healthy dad. When walking is difficult, it starts rubbing on you because you imagine yourself as someone who wants to run around and play with him. I was a dad at 44 so I am not a young dad, but right now I feel like I am sixty 🙂

I have been whining and complaining a bit too much lately, so I have told myself that I need to be a bit more positive and take it easy. I can’t control the pain in my foot but I must do something about what I can control. One of them is losing weight which will make me more energetic and healthy. I have an objective of losing 15 kg by October. I will focus on that and remind myself how fortunate I am.

This morning I held my son in my arms while he was sleeping and it’s just the best feeling in the world. How lucky I am!

Less complaining. Life is good 🙂

Electric pads sending impulses through my foot. One of the toes bounces up and down which is quite funny.
