Because when you stop and look around life is pretty amazing.   This is the first of may in the rest of your life. For me it is soon Spartan Race time. The Super in Open category is waiting for me in Madrid this saturday the 4th. May. I am ready. Well I think I am ready. Now I have begun the very important restitution/recovery time.

?A real value of our lives is in how we use our time as we journey from the womb to the tomb. A great difference between the womb and the tomb is the w and the t! Wasted time! We waste great and precious time as we journey from the womb to the tomb; in the end, we remember the w and the t in a simple statement of regret, ‘had I known’ !
