6 Pack Honeymoon

Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done.

I have wanted to have six-pack abs for almost as long as I can remember. At age 10 I invested my savings in a sit up bench which I used religiously. In my early 20’s I found the gym, and came very close. The musculature is there, but my body fat percentage has always been a limiting factor. I just cant shred enough to get good definition in the lower abdominal muscles.

But I have a much larger undone “to do.”

My biggest “to-do” that has never been “done” will always be marriage. Despite my wishes, I have just never been able to make it happen. It is not a lack of desire, but something else – fate, or destiny – like an invisible hand that blocks every approach.

Perhaps there is a connection between my lack of perfectly sculpted abdominal muscles and perpetual bachelorhood…

Maybe if I could get six pack abs I would suddenly meet the woman of my dreams…

Or maybe its too late, for you, me, and 6 pack honeymoons.

But hey, as my grandfather used to say; “The wrong one is worse than no one at all.”

Stay Wild!
