So what if you’re getting older. Just keep riding…
Is Aging a Physical Condition or a State of Mind?
After the previous post with the Morning Fall video I thought I would post something a bit more upbeat.
I like to think aging is, in part, something I can manage mentally. This video always helps support that notion. And it may have some benefit down the road to help me just keep riding.
Memories of this video often spring to mind when I ride my Vespa scooter, or any other two-wheeled machine. While I realize some aspects of aging and health may make continued riding impossible, I believe there are a wide range of circumstances that can be overcome through determination and willpower. Those are the situations where my own thinking and beliefs trip me up.
It’s important that I determine the difference between those things I have power over and those I do not. I want to be careful to not judge myself harshly or consider some lack of action my fault, or a lack of willpower, when in fact they are truly insurmountable. Too often people judge themselves and others as “not trying hard enough” when in fact there is absolutely nothing that can be done.
This video provides me with a jolt of hope and strength when I feel bad. It helps me to just keep riding.
What does it do for you?
