Our bodies are designed to get out there and move, so even if we can't run so much, most of us can at least get out there and walk. I'm suffering from an annoying cold at the moment so I'm not running at the moment - I can't wait until I'm better so I can get out there and hit the road again!<br /><br />@Alana - Thanks for coming by and posting, I'm glad that you get something out of my blog. I would really rather not be living with this depression, but given that I apparently have to, running really helps. <br /><br />I've been feeling frustrated and sorry for myself that I can't get out and run due to my cold. But your message really puts things into perspective, and I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to love exercising but be unable to do it at all due to surgeries, I feel for you. I hope that you get well soon and can get out and moving around again.TDRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05626690700825096080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6992384760002237497.post-71450684820495657672011-05-16T14:08:54.885-07:002011-05-16T14:08:54.885-07:00I love reading your blog.

I really want to get it out there, im inspired by your ability to talk about it.Its about my struggle with depression and social anxiety disorder. I would really appreciate it if you could help get it out there, maybe just put the link in one of your posts. That would be awesome. You don't have to of course. But thank you for your blog, it help me understand myself better. I want to be a writer someday. I'm 16 by the way.<br /><br />http://fightformylife-depression.blogspot.com/ <br /><br />That is the link to mine...you can read it/reccomend or post the link to other people too if u want. I dot know why, but I just feel like i want to talk about things, and an audiance who doesnt know me seems safer than an audiance who does. Im inspired by your ability to live with your depression, I hope I can too.<br /><br /><br />You talk about running a lot. I used to be a huge runner, soccer, track, I just loved it. It helped my mood a lot too. Ever since I've started getting leg surgeries I havnt been able to run, or even walk. I miss it. Your blog sometimes reminds me of that good feeling when you run. I love it too.Alanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06578754575840563746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6992384760002237497.post-38550747384857272552011-05-15T08:55:57.406-07:002011-05-15T08:55:57.406-07:00Indeed we are.

I do think that it is an integral part of our past and it is a shame that we no longer fulfill that need. A basic need. Cars and mass transit have changed the world and not all for the better. I just completely agree with your post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
