Menudo poder que te da esto - This really empowers you
Un dĂa redondo - A great day

Soren Kierkegaard Quote:
Sobre todo, no pierdas el deseo de caminar: cada dĂa camino hacia un estado de bienestar y me alejo de toda enfermedad; he caminado hacia mis mejores pensamientos, y no conozco ningĂșn pensamiento tan agobiante que uno no pueda alejarse de Ă©l.
Ademås, también es evidente que al caminar uno se acerca constantemente lo mås posible al bienestar, aunque no lo alcance del todo.
Por otro lado sentĂĄndose quieto, y cuanto mĂĄs se estĂĄ sentado quieto, mĂĄs cerca se estĂĄ de sentirse enfermo. La salud y la salvaciĂłn sĂłlo se encuentran en el movimiento... si uno sigue caminando, todo irĂĄ bien.
