Restoring An Old Hutch

Sometimes when I jog. Peter Ngeresa

Maybe I have not commented yet ...

eat a lot in Africa.

They say that is because they are obliged to walk long hours to reach the objectives that have been raised in the day. And it is true, the African walk a lot, wake up early in the morning, work the land, create food, build shelter, and saw the day of a senile effort inherited from their ancestors.

Now I can understand why they eat so much, work hard, are not machines, and the sun, at some point in the afternoon, can be quite unforgiving.

But as they say in my village, there is always a blessed but-I, a Venezuelan by birth, with Italian roots to stay in my body, an insatiable tendency to be fat, not work as they have, however, intend to eat the same amount of food they ... two to three plates of food at night, and I, I can not.

Yes, I'm gaining weight in Africa, as this is not the first paradox that life presents to me, but I worry not for aesthetic reasons, or perhaps if, for who knows me knows that recently cut a lot of kilos , and the truth, it feels good to be well ... On the other hand, the clothes, not that I have a lot of money to buy new clothes. In short, I am concerned.

So I decided to get up "early" (At eight o'clock, when everybody has been up at four o'clock) and go for a jog on a path that must have four or five miles. I confess that I have less than two weeks trying in this way (just before trotting in a circle in the same orphanage), and that I could not jog around, sometimes I have to walk to catch their breath, as it is worth saying that it's cold and I can hardly breathe (Another paradox, cold in Africa), to try to justify my lack of commitment little mind-body (I want to finish the tour gets trotted, my body can not)

Today, as trotting (by the way that every time I jog more and walk less) I got the following statement of motivation:

not think about what left, and think about what you will ... think about each step you take.

Live every step, every step feels, breathes every step, focus on this accurate and will achieve goal.

On the other hand, sometimes, some children encounter on the road, they start jogging with me, and although not speak English, I do enjoy the tour much more.

And surely I'll find a way to thank them for make more beautiful the road.

ASANTE SANA!
