Yes, I need my fix.

I'm addicted. To love. And to exercise. Probably in that order. I've been put to a real test. In terms of the exercise addiction. I had hernia surgery. Barely 48 hours ago. And this morning at 5:30, before sunrise, I could no longer stay in bed. I had to satisfy my compulsion. I went for a walk. Yes, 2 miles. And I saw the sun come up. And I heard the birds greet the first glimmer of daylight. Oh, so wonderful. To be alive. And in love. And able to walk. Here it is about noon. And I've gone 7 miles so far today. And I feel like I'll go 20 miles. Yes, I need my fix. --Jim Broede
