GAC zumba classes are separated somewhat by abilities----but the
participants in the “gold” zumba have several obvious characteristics. List below
only includes today’s glaring differences.
- Wal-Mart matchi-matchi apparel out numbered UnderArmour
- No mid-driff flesh visible
- FitBits worn by a few but not a single Apple Watch (What Medicare gal has the eyes or finger dexterity for that??)
- Knee brace, ankle brace and wrist brace all seen, on the 2nd row alone.
- Uptown Funk blares, but it’s the “clean” version.
- Toes tap to “all the right junk in all the right places….but the places are a lot closer to the floor than they once were.
- More smiles than sweat---just making it through the door each week is a feat.
from a birthday card received a few years ago |
When one is closer to the end of their life than the beginning,
the truth of Psalm 73:26* resonates in a Zumba Gold room. It’s what keeps me
going and smiling.
* My flesh and my heart may fail, But God is the strength of my
heart and my portion forever.
