The Box

Today at work I had to carry a box downstairs. It wasn't a large box so it surprised me when it was heavy. I am thinking to myself, "wow, this weighs a lot!" When I got to my destination, for curiosities sake, I looked to see what it weighed. Thirty pounds. That's when it dawned on me that I had lost 31 pounds at this point. Hmmm, I was packing that weight around and thought nothing of it, but when I had to pack it in a box I am amazed at how heavy it is. It made me thankful and appreciative of how much I had lost. So, on days when you are discouraged pick up something that weighs the amount you have lost and you will be glad to keep on going. It will surprise you!
