Thank your for your reply.
I hope, for David, that my comment wasn’t too harsh!
I get up on my high horse sometimes!
And you are right ; I’m not a graduate in psychology.I don’t know so much about happiness so I will watch more attentively and humbly the video with Dan Gilbert (and add “Ted” as one of my favorites on my computer).
But, have you ever compiled medical files of quadriplegic people? I did for my studies and work.
While I was reading medical reports I was disgusted to discover on long lists what “the universe has in store” for some of us.

bye,

If you look at the study and some ancillary research it makes sense. I heard Dr. Joy Browne talking about it on the radio and I watched a TED talk on it, too.

The exact same thing happened to me. I was running 6-8mi/day and got shin splints (again) pretty quickly. After letting my legs heal, I switched to barefoot running and running with 5-toe vibrams. The idea is that barefoot running allows you to develop your running at a natural speed that doesn’t wear down your body.

The story you tell is totally completed by the pic. I’m sure you know that already. Thanks for pointing out how fortunate most of us are and that we have so many good things to be grateful for.

while i think many of your comments are store bought, you may be winning me over.

i prefer the quote, “don’t sweat the petty stuff; and don’t pet the sweaty stuff.” although, petting the sweaty stuff has its own rewards.

Years ago, I was walking down the street in a depressed mood, and I muttered under my breath that I was the most miserable man in the world. In the precise moment I flattered myself so, I saw a woman who wore the scars of burns over her entire body. Walking immediately after her was a man whose physical impairments demanded he hold his arm in an unnatural position as he hobbled in my direction. I immediately got the message.

All the people who took part in “healthy activity” at work are suffering in their old age. Keep to the arm chair – its much safer. Where’s my remote…..

Jogging is a very unhealthy activity,
Especially bad for the knees,
Doubly bad when running on concrete.
Try a more healthy exercise activity like rowing, swimming or possibly cycling.
It will avoid an unhappy artritic Davey in old age.

This message came at time when I’m going
through some negative crap. What you said
reminded me that my life ain’t that bad.
Thanks again, Davey. Hope you heal quickly.

you know what they say when there’s always someone worst off then you are! sometimes the body tells you to stop and rest for a very good reason! having lived with the HIV virus for 20 years I never used to listen to my body until now when I try to push it too far and he(my body) tells me off in no uncertain terms! as the dalai Lama said:” yesterday is history, today is a presnt and tomorrow a mystery!” live every minute like it was your last to make sure you have tons of good memories to tell your children or friends! what is the point of saying I wish I had….!

Davey you definitely put my life in perspective some days. Really enjoyed reading this, because I know that I try and live my life the fullest everyday, and it doesn’t matter if I am a millionaire or if I have just given my last dollar to a friend, it is always important for me to be happy.

Davey – even serious runners know that you have to take breaks. The same is true of life – mix it up; take a rest – and your body, mind and soul will appreicate it more.

I discovered shinsplints in Toronto as well, and while it took about six months for the pain to go away, I’ve been very happy for the lesson learned of “good things in moderation” and mostly because exercise is good, but you do have to let the body heal afterwards.

I do thank God (and the universe) for the fact that there are doctors and caregivers who work to prevent cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis and cure conditions like Alzheimer’s.

God created the universe, and gave us minds to think and hearts to love with so we can make the future better, I hope you can help celebrate the successful achievements instead of believing that ‘God is supposed to heal everyone, why should we get involved?’

History says that people who used to be born defective were ‘put out of their misery’ so they wouldn’t live an unbearable life. Seeing as how they enjoyed the morning like you did, I wouldn’t believe that that would be a kindness.

Cheers to you and here’s to hoping that you heal quickly!

Of course shin splints, which are exquisitely painful, are an inflammation of the fascia surrounding the tibia. They can be stretched by sitting back on your heels and, if possible, putting your hands on the floor behind you.

Take care of those shin splints. Lots of ice after walking or working out. Reduce inflammation and take it really easy until there is some improvement. Shin splints can be a really annoying long standing injury if ignored. Find out if there is a stretch that you can do to alleviate some aspect of the problem — unsure about the actual mechanics of that area, but there might be something you can do to help. Also deep tissue “friction” can help reduce adhesions from forming during the healing process which can really aid in the free movement of the tissues as they get better. (Adhesions, part of healing and scar tissue formation, can really slow the process and add a lot of pain to movement when normal activity is resumed.)

David,

Regarding the recent study you mentioned in the post; you mean you believe all that garbage? Compare what is comparable and don’t pay attention to such study! The one who conducted that one is without doubt an arrant idiot!!!

bye, have a good day!

Ps : A lot of rest and anti-inflammatories will certainly help you to recover rapidly from your leg! Patience!
