I was in the gym 4-5 days a week(I even competed when my son was just two years old), and on the weekends I would go hiking or do some other outdoor activity. Then BAM!! I look back on those days and it feels like I'm looking at a stranger. But there are also invaluable lessons I have learned because I had to just stop doing everything – my faith being the most important and life-giving one. Yes, I miss being so active but when I look at where my life was headed, I'm actually thankful ME stopped me. I'm a better person for it; though, as you said, I still wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
