It's All Relative

It turns out there are other things going on in the world besides the fact that I am one pound from losing 100 pounds and I am about to get my period (meaning I need another week to hit my milestone). 

Osama Bin Laden is dead. 

The part of this story that really gets to me is that the team of SEALS that went in KNEW that they were possibly entering a situation that had no live exit.  I am always in awe of people who can risk their lives to do things like this.  I mean, it gives me goose bumps.  They were willing to really truly sacrifice their lives in order to end his and complete this 10 year mission.  It's truly amazing.

Back to my theory of relativity.... 100 pounds can wait for another week.  It's okay.  I am not risking anything other than my patience.

  3. I am in awe of humans in general. The good, bad, and the ugly!

    I am in awe of your 100lbs. I am 4.6 lbs away from being under 200 and I can't wait. But it is going a little slow!

    Yay you!
