It was more than 2 months ago since I last ran, had to rest 2 times before completing a 10k run this evening, really exhausted now. I really wanted to give up when I was resting the first time, I thought about my sister-in-law’s father who suffered from an heart-attack during soccer game a few days ago and still in coma now. I questioned about pushing myself.
It’s really not easy sometimes to decide whether to challenge yourself and push your limit or to give up and acknowledge your limit. I remember this well-known prayer:
Oh Lord,
Please give me Serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And Wisdom to know the difference.
Oh Lord, if you’re willing, please heal uncle and give him one more chance to believe in You before meeting You in heaven.
