every day is thinking about movement and its engagement to life.  explaining how connected our lives are not only to one another but to each other and ultimately, inwardly to ourselves.  talking with one person and another about the shape of their life experiences or those of others and finding where that has taken effect in one's life, assuming that we only have one life, that is.  

long ago and not so long ago, someone told me about the three lives they had.  the first was a story of family and roots, the beginnings of everything.  the second was a story of carrying on.. persevering and finding strength through prose.  and finally, the third and present life came and brought along with it love, rejoicing, and rebirth.  

these stories and so many others will leave their indelible marks on life, a life worth living that is.  there is no life worth living that doesn't leave scars.  some we will pick on all the days of our life.  some others will fade into a memory we hardly remember.  and some we will wear proudly on our sleeve as a sign to the world that, I am me.  

I see my role as a chiropractor in re-shaping some of these indelible marks that have made their way into our present life.  sometimes it keeps us from moving a certain way or thinking a certain way.  sometimes we look sideways at something when we could be looking at it straight on... what fun it is to create new paradigms and parameters for the body to exist in.  

makes me happy.
