The journey was that my husband passed away in February and I decided that this was a new chapter of my life that was going to include health and wellness and this was the avenue. I came here with a fear,

a fear that I would become dependent on my children or other people as I age and I do not want to do that. So I came

with that fear which love is greater than fear and we are not to move out of fear.

We're not none of this is about fear and the Lord showed me he is my sanctuary. He is going to take care of me and it's yeah he's he's

all I need.

If you want to keep your quality of life for a long time,

you come and you get healthy, not just healthy in your mind, I mean your body, but healthy in your mind and your soul and your spirit.

God has so much for you to do in the later years of your life.

He's not done. he's only started using us there are

great advantages to coming as a senior the young ones love you because they are all inspired because we're here and I love being here.

I love the young women, the young men, I love the energy, it seeps into me and makes me able to do more than I could

if I was just surrounded by a bunch of older people.

Start slow, but there is room at the table for us all.

There are, I can't do everything.

I can't do all of the moves. I have injuries that keep me from doing a plank.

Excuse me, I have, but I can do a modified plank.

There are, there's always something you can do.

You don't have to look like a triathlete.

You don't have to look like a 25 year old. You can look like a healthy 60, 64 year old.

I have realized that I am strong. I am very strong and I'm very courageous.

This has cemented that fact, that truth into my heart and mind.

And I'm going to take that away.
