A great Poem --Thank you Martha, Sharon!

Martha led me to her surgery page which led me to the journal of Sharon Neva....who has a ton of wonderful stuff on her site--check it out. But I really really liked this poem and since I am a "door closer" on many chapters of my life, it especially sits well with me. Enjoy! Don't Look Back~ You're Not Going That Way As you travel through life, there are times when decisions just have to be made. When all you can do is gather your courage and choose a direction that carries you toward a new dawn. So take a step forward. The process of change can be tough but think about the excitement ahead. There could be adventures you never imagined and wishes and dreams just about to come true. So keep putting one foot in front of the other and taking your life day by day. There's a brighter tomorrow just down the road. Don't look back- you're not going that way!

I have a matted, framed lithograph of Mary Engelbreit's "Don't Look Back" painting. It's adorable...has a little gal in a straw hat, ribbon streaming, skipping up a road, as only Mary Engelbreit can capture. She's at a fork in a road, and on one fork there's a steet sign with an arrow pointing up the road, and the sign says "Your Life". The other road has the same kind of sign with an arrow, and it says "No Longer An Option". I spent big money on that print when I moved into my house 5 years ago after living in my other home for 22 years. When I moved into this house, I knew I was making many life changes. I had NO idea what would be up the bend 5 years from then! Kimmer Queen of the Niners, Instigator to All Marchers, High Priestess of Giggles Zero-minus-6 and 3 workdays!

You are most welcome Sally. I go to Sharon's post for a lot of information it has been very helpful to me.

Sally, how are you? Don't know if you remember me but I remember you! Happy 4th anniversary - I'm contacting as many of our Marchers as I can to encourage everyone to post on their anniversary dates - share whatever you want to talk about - successes, failures, triumphs, tragedies - mostly, please tell us how you're doing with maintaining your weight loss. So many of us are struggling and I think all need a good talking to from each other, no matter where we're at in this journey - we're in this together, please, please check in on your anniversary date! Take care, Maureen
