Long run, Long thoughts before #37

It's a beautiful day for a 10 mile run. I got up later than I wanted to but I still got up and ran.  My mind was heavy with many thoughts when I ran. I thought about state #37. How much July sucks. Tomorrow will be the 7th year of the day my mom passed away.  I found out yesterday that my cousin who was in her 40s and had two kids lost her battle with cancer. In the same day my other cousin picked out her wedding dress. Talk about a roll coaster of emotions. To add to the fuel, the circuit court said it was ok/legal for an employer not to hire someone who has dreadlocks. Ugh.

It's a lot that never seems to stop. At least for my hour and 35 minutes, I could look at blue sky and waters and just be with me for a moment.
