    Estuve de buen humor - I was in a good mood
    Estuve de mala leche - I was in a bad mood
    Una cena un poco tensa - A bit of a tense meal
    A todos nos sienta bien movernos - Moving makes all of us feel better

    Menudo poder que te da esto - This really empowers you
    Un día redondo - A great day
    Yo ni lo intento - I’m not even going to try

    Soren Kierkegaard Quote:

    Sobre todo, no pierdas el deseo de caminar: cada día camino hacia un estado de bienestar y me alejo de toda enfermedad; he caminado hacia mis mejores pensamientos, y no conozco ningún pensamiento tan agobiante que uno no pueda alejarse de él.

    Además, también es evidente que al caminar uno se acerca constantemente lo más posible al bienestar, aunque no lo alcance del todo.

    Por otro lado sentándose quieto, y cuanto más se está sentado quieto, más cerca se está de sentirse enfermo. La salud y la salvación sólo se encuentran en el movimiento... si uno sigue caminando, todo irá bien.
