I'm Papillon!

I sent my sister this photo of me next to my new car,
pointing at the
Mercedes Benz Emblem,
with a statement underneath.

"You wish!"
She sent me an email back stating,

"You look good Jim, real good."

Or something close to those words.
That is when my brain went into overtime.

After I read those words,
all I could think about was the scene from the movie
"Papillon"
starring
Steve McQueen.

Still one of the coolest
Movie Stars
of all time.

When the main character,
Papillon,
stuck his head out of a prison door window for roll call,
he asked the prisoner next to him,
"How do I look?"
The guy next to him takes one look at
Papillon,
and winces.
But kindly says to him,
"You look good, real good."
That's when
Papillon
new he was dying.
Because he had done the same thing to the prisoner next him when he was first jailed ten years before.
Of course,
that prisoner soon died.
So
Papillon
started exercising everyday,
until he was healthy enough to escape from prison.
Well,
that is what I am going to do now!

Not trying to escape from prison,
but exercising.
Hiking two miles in the morning
and two miles in the evening.

No push ups though,
no sit ups,
no curls,
no squatting,
no touching my toes,
no...............?
Sorry,
never mind.

I'm dead.

This is,
Believing That If I Am Thinking About Exercising,
Then I Am Exercising,
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“Even if you have to walk fast for 30mins, five days a week, by all means do so. Never make excuses to why you don't have the time to work out. Your body deserves to enjoy the taste of a good health. Never settle for less.”
- Edmond Mbiaka -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
