Driving to work on a hazy day,

I glanced out my side window

and saw, though overcast,

the day was clear – 

a reminder that what we see

depends on the the state of

the window we’re looking through.

It may be late in the evening,

but it’s not too late

to keep the promise

I made to myself.

Let the fitness practice begin.

 Last year I had my knee replaced

and now I’m going for

 a replacement of another kind.

I’m crowding out unhelpful habits

with practices that will, in time,

develop healthy habits of body, heart, and mind.

Last  year the grandkids suggested

I try a more comprehensive replacement plan.

Nineteen days ago, I, at last, began.
