Gravity Stretch
“In the end, the wishing star is destroyed. Puss-in Boots decides to treasure his life that he has. Perrito gets to treasure his friends and be their therapy animal. Goldilocks realizes that her adoptive family is all the family she actually needs. Kitty Softpaws decides she can actually trust Puss-in Boots. Jack Horner dies in his pursuit of power. Death gives up on trying to kill Puss because he is willing to live his life no longer fearing death and accepting that it will come for him some day.
Moral: we should accept that we only have one life and that death will come for us all. It is an eventuality. However we do not need to fear it since we are in Christ. We should seek to live our lives for Christ as best we can. We should also remember to treasure our family and not just take them for granted or seek at some ideal that does not exist.”

Moleskin:
It was a couple of days before the workout and no ideas were in sight until the option of doing a themed workout came to mind. That would be great, but what theme should be used? Well, How about Puss in Boots Last Wish? It has a good moral lesson. But then how would the workout go? Well, it can revolve around the plot of the story and hit on the motivations of the main characters. As a bonus we can also have a moral at the end of the workout as well. So a win win.
This the planning began and went through a couple of processes. After about 9 yesterday, the plan was pretty much complete. It would be in honor of some of the Qs I heard about CDC and Ginger doing (themed, but also with a moral). Thus it was show time.
Everything started off well. We all came out of the woodworks and began the workout. My brain kind of shut off on the Merkins and we did 10 instead of 5, but it all worked out. Then we got into the story of the movie. It was received pretty well and we were off to jailbreaking. Seems we did not get too far as we ended up where we started. But we quickly moved onto the soft surface for some core exercises. These were supposed to be the more relaxing exercises. But as a couple of PAX pointed out, dying cockroachs are not typically associated with therapy and happiness. But we persevered. We got to go through each character one by one. There was some reluctance on the Goldilocks and Jack Horner exercises, but we made it on through with minimal casualties.
Then we got to the summary and moral which was during the gravity stretch. Hopefully everyone is able to be confident in their faith in Jesus and not fear death because that is not the end. After death we have a better life ahead. Live the life you have to the glory of God!
