Pebbles

As I'm getting older I'm finding that some physical things are more difficult. Keeping my strength up is a constant challenge. My flexibility, even more.

As I sort thru the things that hinder my abilities I'm finding that the part that "hurts" is usually the noticible part. But the part that is being protected by that hurting part is more often the real problem. Like having a pebble in my shoe for so long, I've changed my gait so much to avoid the pebble I don't feel it any more. Now I'm complaining that my knee or hip hurts. Which it does, of course, now. Trying to find the pebble, the root cause, and discover if it is now fixable (removable), is the quest.
