Champion Challenge “We Have to Learn to Crawl Before We Can Fly! “

Hey Friends! If you are new here and stumbled across my blog Welcome! I hope this post finds you all with Peace upon you, around you and within you.

Today we woke up to a beautiful warm sunny day. Spring is in the air. Just look how everything is blooming. I love this time of year. The season of rebirth and growth.

We gave our Thanks, started the coffee, gave Elvis his morning love and breakfast. It was such a nice morning we sat under the gazebo and drank coffee while we listened to the birds.

Let me tell you something adorable we just recently discovered about Elvis. So the Past few days and nights he just randomly started belting out his song of love to attract the lady cats.

He really was belting it out so loudly and passionately calling into the night Elvis Presley himself would have been both impressed and terrified.

We didn’t actually know it was is love song the first time we heard it we thought something was wrong and went to where he was out in the yard.

But of course he was perfectly fine. Maybe a little bit offended that we so rudely interrupted his love song serenade.

The entire situation was even more precious because his song of love meant to attract the ladies, sounds more like a wounded animal that will attract the wolves.

But you know what he is out there trying his best and that’s what matters. He is a shining example to us all. Bless his little pea pickin heart.

We drank our beet smoothie. Honestly I try not to even breath as I drink it. I just chug it down as quickly as possible. Still not used to the dirt taste yet.

The benefits so far have been my hands and feet have never been more warm and toasty. It’s almost crazy because I have like chronically cold hands and feet in the winter.

Obviously I had to Google this new found benefit. It seems like I was one of the very few people on this planet that did not know that beets are actually really good for heating up our bodies.

Recently before I work out I have been eating some banana, peanut butter and raisins. I highly recommend trying this if you haven’t already because its yummy and full of the good stuff to help our bodies get through the work out.

I have been pretty consistent with my work outs. I give myself Sundays off and maybe a day in the week if I am feeling like my legs no longer care about me, my wants or my needs. They are DONE and no give absolutely no more F*’s.

Isn’t it strange that self care on even life’s necessities like drinking enough water daily is so freakin hard? I mean honestly what is that about?

So yeah, I have been working on this. Some days I do really good and I feel great about it. Other days….not so much sadly.

I understand it’s a mixture of being busy or maybe being out and we can’t find a restroom. Or even if you are home trying to keep up with 3 to 4 Liters a day seems like so much.

How much water are you guys normally drinking? I know I am not alone here, or am I? 🙂 Any one else have a hard time with this?

Recently we have started our garden and I am so excited and can’t wait to see everything growing from a little baby seed.

As we get further along I will update you guys and we can share gardening tips.

Also got my very first bird feeder. Just look at how precious it is. If I was a bird I would definitely have a buffet from there.

The goal is to catch some good photo’s of the birds in our yard. We have so many birds here that it sounds like we like in the jungle sometimes.

Started to dry some flowers for the project I have in mind so fingers crossed they turn out well. First time drying flowers soooo we shall see. If you guys have any tips on drying flowers please leave me a comment below.

Today’s food for thought is we have to learn to crawl before we can fly. We all would really like to just be born already knowing how to fly but alas this takes patience and perseverance.

It is all part of the process right! We shouldn’t be ashamed if we are not flying yet because we are in the process of learning the fundamentals.

Some of us are late bloomers and you know what…that’s perfectly fine. According to Rune Lazuli the last to bloom is the strongest!

To all you early bloomers out there please don’t take offence I don’t make the rules, he said what he said;)

In life as we have learned everything is a process and the key is to stay focused, keep practicing and learning each day. It’s not about perfection it’s about perseverance.

As we are practicing and growing life is still going to happen around us and to us. We can’t avoid this but what we can do is use this negative energy to push us further.

Face the situation with dignity and honor using as much courage as we can muster up to push harder, go further and eventually fly higher!

We got this guys! We may still be crawling, walking, running or dancing but soon very soon we are going to be flying baby!

Let’s not compare our process and journey to the journey of others. We didn’t see their process but they started off crawling just like the rest of us .

If you are being made fun of or made to feel ashamed because you are a late bloomer and in the beginning stages of the process.

Take a deep breath let their words run off your back like water. The time will come when they will see how very high we can fly!
