I mentioned in the last e-mail that I burn rather easily when I get out in the sun. I guess I am sun-tan challenged if I had to make up a politically correct word for it. The last time I had a tan was in 2000. That was a big moment for me, so of course I still remember it. In fact I would lie out in the sun just about every day. I was never really tan before that, and unfortunately I haven’t been tan since. In fact every year at this time I talk about getting a tan before the end of the summer. And every August I wonder what happened and why I’m still the same pale color I was during the winter.
I was a little excited about visiting the Sunshine State during our honeymoon. I just knew it was my chance to get an early start on a suntan. We rented a house for our honeymoon instead of staying in a hotel. They have them on VRBO.com and make wonderful getaways. I was really excited because this house had a private pool. It was going to be great. I could lay out by the pool, relax, and work on my tan. It doesn’t get any better than that. It was a great idea. I think we used the swimming pool 2 or 3 times and I started to see a little sun tan developing. I was quite proud.
Here’s the thing about getting a tan. It takes persistence. You have to slowly work up to having a tan so you won’t burn when you go outside. You can’t take a rapid approach to getting a tan. It’s just not that easy. If I sold you a pill that promised rapid suntan results in a week, you would look at me like I was crazy. (Some of you would still try it though.) But we all know that it just doesn’t work that way. Last time I mentioned about the infomercials, weight loss pills, and the magazines that promise rapid results. Why do we fall for those types of things? I guess we always hope it’s true, but we know better.
Here’s the thing. We know that getting a tan takes time and persistence and the same is true for your fitness level and health. I want you to realize the same thing about your results.
Jessica and I are newlyweds. We have so much to learn about marriage and each other. We vowed that we would never stop the honeymoon. Our plan is to continue to learn and grow every year. We’ve gone through 3 or 4 books already during our engagement, honeymoon, and wedding phase. We plan to read 2 books a year together in order to keep growing and learning as a couple. We plan to make our bond stronger over time with persistence and hard work. Personally, I think it will work.
What are you doing for your health though? Are you reading things that are written just to sell you a magazine or are you really reading and researching about your health? I know it’s confusing out there, but I know if you try, you will find some quality information on your health.
Next time I want to tell you about something I brought with me on my trip that made everything easier. I will also share with you some books that I think will make your trip to health easier as well.
