Action

I was helping my friend Jill with the Haiti penny drive she set up for Alki elementary, and she told me that she just felt good from taking action. I agree.

I'm trying to take action in my own life. Helping with raising money for Haiti or helping in my community, for sure, but also closer to home. Working on getting Tessa back on track behaviorly, cooking healthy meals, budgeting (and not just writing the numbers down but living by them), and the like.

Yesterday I even went running. (Ouch!)

It can be so difficult to get started, sometimes, but I am sure that it's worth it.

Action is the antidote to despair. - Joan Baez
