Yesterday I was working out at the gym, feeling large and sluggish.
I look to my left and I see a platnium blonde with a rock for a body and I want to go barf up the cake I had the night before.
I look to my right and see a man in a wheelchair whose workout includes circling his neck and making circles with his arms because that's about all he has strength to do.

Today I was missing Ryan more than I have in a long time.
I look to my left and I see a newly engaged couple kissing on a bench.
I look to my right and discover that a dear friend's boyfriend of 2 years had recently passed away after he was in a car accident on his way to pick her up for a Saturday night date.
Moral of this story?
Keep looking right.
