Need for change

I'm not a young man any more. I have crows feet aka Laughter Lines at the corners of my eyes and there is at time a distinct inability to bounce out of bed in the morning.
I do however have the need to continue growing as a person. This is where having a much younger wife helps no end. It isn't true that younger wives make you feel young...well at least not for me. What is true, is that they give you reasons to keep growing as a person, to not give in to the forces of inertia and conservatism.
Thus I am continuing my programme of fitness. I'm not the lean, toned god I want to be...and I can assure you, the day I am, there will be photo's of me up on this blog, but there is the need for change.
So many of us lead lives that are boring and stale. Why? If we are only here once, then shouldn't we out doing the things that we want to be doing? Perhaps it is the Aspergers, but my comfort zone is when I am out there doing things that are pushing the envelope. This perhaps why at my age I'm trying to effectively turn the clock back twenty years and have the physique I had when I married my first wife...and which her cooking promptly destroyed.
I have to go...there's a park needing a frisbee thrown in it.
