There is something that feels soo good about seeing an old friend, a familiar face, that makes everything else in life seem alright. This is a crazy busy world we live in and I know I am very guilty of getting caught up in training, dieting, odds and ends and not checking in with those friends around me. The past couple weeks, I have been making it a point to stop and reconnect with those around me and it makes me feel at ease with all the stuff that is going on. I saw Robin and BC yesterday and it made me want to cry. I miss yall soo much and know you are very close in my heart. You have played a major part in this journey to competing and I am forever grateful for that, I hope you always know this! The one thing about life is that it is forever changing and people come and go, but those who are your true friends will always be there, no matter what. I had this discussion with sweet cheeks as she prepares to move and start a new chapter in her life. It doesn't matter where she moves or what she decides to do, if she needs me, she knows I am only a phone call away and I will be beside her, holding her hand and catching her is she were ever to fall. I feel this way about all of my close friends and as things change in life, it becomes very apparent who your true friends are.
On another note, I have been following Nicole Wilkins Lee (my freaking idol) and she is kicking butt! This weekend she will compete in the Mr. Olympia for the Figure title and I am excited to see how she does. She competed this past weekend and looked great but I hope she knows, I am chasing her. LOL I want to be at her level and she is a huge motivator to get my behind to the gym and push some weights. Nicole always looks elegant and classy on stage, an image I really admire. Here is a picture of her from last weekend....Yep, hopefully I can get there...One day!
Ciao for now, J
