So, Matt and I finally get on a solid, consistent work-out schedule (at 5 each morning) only to drive into the parking lot on Thursday and find it dark (both the parking lot and the gym). You’d think I would be shocked, frustrated yes, shocked, no. This has actually happened to us once before in another Texas city.
I will never understand why a club would just shut down without giving any kind of notice to its members. I realize that life happens, but surely they had an idea that the gym would be closing before they actually locked the door and put up the sign. Irritation set in. We needed to remain on the schedule that was working for us and we needed a gym. Thankfully, there is the YMCA. Still not knowing what was occurring with our previous gym, we signed up and began working out once again.
But I can’t say I am sorry that we signed up for the gym. That membership allowed us to begin working out together and save a puppy from certain death (but that’s a story for another blog). We may never know why certain instances occur in our lives, but each helps to create a small piece of who we are and who we are to become. How we choose to handle those instances and how we allow them to affect us – that is left up to each individual. Life is never certain. Thank goodness, if it was the road along our journey would be a pretty boring place. And then it really would be the destination and not the journey that mattered.
