Describe one of your favorite moments.
Waking up in the morning is a blessing, and to see the first light of day is so wonderful. No matter what the night held, and no matter what the rest of the day holds, that moment is special, because it allows me to feel that I have an opportunity to live.
Are you a good judge of character?
I have been proven wrong so many times, mostly for good. Now I simply believe that we’re good people, and only change when I’m consistently proven wrong.
What cities do you want to visit?
I was there once, but would definitely like to return to this city in South Africa.
Ok, yes, it’s not a city in the real sense that you’re thinking, but it does answer the prompt, right? Plus, it’s a fun place to be.
What are your favorite physical activities or exercises?
I love running, and try to do it 3 to 4 times a week. I love it because it’s the one activity that stuck, and it’s easy to do at most places. Slap on your sneakers and off you go, out the door and away from everything.
Most of my runs are without music or any other audio, and it’s the only time I really get to be on my own. The only tech I take along is my trusted Garmin watch.
Recently, though, I had the horror of realizing, just as I was about to start pounding the pavements, that my watch was low on juice. Oh boy, do I run the unrecorded run, or run only until the battery dies, or is it not a run if it’s not recorded?
Of course you must run, my brain says to me. People have been running for millennia without a watch to tell them how far they went and what their heart rate was. Rational though that thought is, it remained a mental struggle as I started off on the journey.
It turned out the battery life was long enough to outlast my planned run, but the question still remains, and now I have increased awareness of the charger.
What is one thing you would change about yourself?
I thought this is part of me, as I type this while working. But I do realize that I may be more effective without multitasking. But it is also what makes me who I am. I choose to change nothing.
