Tribute

This afternoon I went to a tribute at the gym for Ed who passed away last week.  He did not want a service so this was just a bunch of people from the gym getting together because we didn't quite know what to do with ourselves.  What I realized is how many families we all have.  The gym family I have is very close.  I don't think you would find that at other gyms so much but the turn out at this one and the amount of tears and hugs going around really proved what a close knit family we are there - members and instructors.  Make sure to acknowledge those around you that brighten your day.  Even if they are on the outskirts of your life.  You never know what other people are going through on the inside and a sincere appreciation can do wonders for people.
