Live Right and Love Life


I'm here for the camaraderie. I love my Spark neighborhood. I'm grateful to you all for being a bright spot in my life.

Member Since: 5/25/2010

Fitness Minutes: 7,080

My Goals:
My main goal is to be healthy in body and spirit so that I can live the right kind of life.

My Program:
 Eat properly. Forget about food at the end of every meal. Weigh once a week. Do not obsess. Do not limit life in any way because of body size.


Personal Information:
I'm from a tiny town in Georgia (with no traffic lights), but now I live in Kobe, Japan. I'm married to a Japanese and have three bilingual, bicultural children--a son, 30, a daughter, 28, and a daughter, 23. I teach English to Japanese company workers, 99% of whom are men. I like my job.

Other Information:
 I love reading. One of my favorite books is Fred Chappell's novel "Brighten the Corner Where You Are." And if I could state my philosophy, the title of that book would be IT!

    That’s wonderful for your sister! I didn’t imagine it would make such a dramatic difference in such a short time.
    Happy Birthday to your son (and Congratulations to Mom, too). I do hope Hisaki finds a path that he will be happy with.
    It sounds like you’re already used to the freedom! I just love doing nothing. I can enjoy it for such long stretches of time, I surprise myself!
    I’ve just “spoken” to my grandson on FaceTime for the first time. We had talked about what I would be called and I suggested “Granny” but Nicky and Yuka didn’t seem to be happy with that. I don’t mind what I’m called and from today, the two of us are “obaachan” and “ojiichan.” I have a new identity from today! They’re all coming to Tokyo next month.
    I hope you’re well, Carolyn, and enjoying the cooler autumn weather.

    Through your dreams, through your imagination, your mission & vision will come as soon as you release your perceived limitations & allow your heart to drive your mind to your dreams. Justin Sachs
