Quote of the Day...

"Leave all the afternoon for exercise and recreation, which are as necessary as reading. I will rather say more necessary because health is worth more than learning."
Thomas Jefferson

I couldn't have said it better myself. Things sure have changed since he was in office. Our society has taken a totally different shift. Long gone are the days of working in the fields, riding horses, and manual labor. We now are a society of computers, cars, fast food, and convenience in everything we do. I will say education is still important in the world today maybe even more so. You can't even be competitive at getting a job without at least a college degree or higher.

Why is health more important than learning you might ask? Because without your health you won't be able to use all the knowledge you've worked so hard to gain. Now I know I might get some scholars that would like to argue with me on this one, but I could argue this until the cows come home. Without your health it's hard to do anything in this life. It's ultimately the most important thing because no amount of money can buy you a healthy body. You either have it or you don't. So we need to take care of it by getting active and using it.

Let's just use this reminder from our dear friend Mr. Jefferson and get outside and enjoy moving our bodies and recognize the gift that being healthy is. You have to move it or you'll lose it. Exercise is as vital to our health as water and air. Get it in everyday and make it part of your lifestyle.
