It's all relative - at least I believe that to be so when speaking about certain things. Take the weather for example. Today I believe we nearly topped out at 50 degrees - a downright rather warm day. However, rewind to this time last year in Phoenix and that very same 50 degrees would have been bloody cold.
Maybe it's the way I'm dressed...
Regardless, it's all in perspective of and preparation for what surrounds us at any given present moment. Something that makes us excited one day may depress us the next one. Students (or co-workers) we spend our days with might be acting a little squirrel-y, but maybe that's more okay than not if there's a full moon out at night. In the "running world," 5 miles may seem like one or it may seem like a marathon - all depending, of course, on how training has been up until the present.
Preparation matters. Perspective counts. It's all relative.
So, let's try to remember that.
(Oh, and heads up - it's a full moon on Monday, in case you were wondering...)
