Gy;m reflections

I've been going to the gym for about two months now. Some random reflections:

I think that perhaps one of the essential life questions is not, "Who am I and what have I done?" but "Who am I and what have I done with what I've been given?"

I still think there should be some way to harness the energy of all those treadmills, ellipticals, and stair climbers.

I've been happy with the amount of ethnic diversity (though still moderate) I've seen at the gym. One of my concerns when joining was that I was supporting a white middle class establishment.

I've also been surprised by the number of senior citizens working out, though as Darrel points out, "if anyone has a right/reason to be at a gym, it's senior citizens."
