Proudest Monkey by The Dave Matthews Band is one of my favorite tunes when I'm in the mood to reflect on things I can not change while switching focus to the things I can change. It's pretty spectacular how music can take our minds elsewhere; prompt our bodies to move...its very therapeutic. 🌸 Movement, I live for movement. It's probably because I have such a busy mind & the energy needs to go somewhere. It may be one of the reasons I gravitate towards Kettlebells...I love how they become an extension of the body; rhythmically transitioning from one movement to the next...And while training with bells requires focus & attention to detail; it can be very ☀️Swing in this tree
Oh I am bounce around so well
Branch to branch,
limb to limb you see
All in a day's dream
I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
Sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
Ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey you've ever seen
