"If it ain't
easy".
a book by Tom Wilson
It's an old story.
You wake eyelids propped open at half mast and as you
stagger head long into a new day, you pray you meet
the coffee god before what you used to recognize as
your body completely gives up the ghost. Sound familiar?
In fact you’ve wondered many times at the miracle
of how you drag yourself through the day. Now you know
that a little movement a day would help. Your comatose
mind, in moments of occasional clarity, remembers someone
saying how... was it yoga?... or tai chi?... or something?...
was supposed to help this impending feeling of lethargy.
But who’s got the time, right? And anyway, it
always seemed such hard work to learn that stuff! Puff
and the brief glimmer is gone. You return your thoughts
to dark Java! ALL I WANT IS A LITTLE ENERGY!!! Is the
cry from your much neglected body. A tune up! A stretch!
A little TLC!. Alas, this cry so often falls on deaf
ears. We just whistle and look the other way. And to
be honest, it is tough to get those things going. Its
hard to find the routine, that for 30minutes a day would
make so much difference. The luxury of spending a little
time with ourselves is not one we often invest in. The
first paragraph has a very familiar feel to it! So for
purely selfish reasons, and to help start my own kick
in the butt, I decided to put together this little book.
If it ain’t easy, I don’t want to do it!
