It's in the shoulders!
During my English lecture this morning a certain lecturer was trying to convince us that his understanding of the poem was more accurate than his. Considering that I lost all respect for this particular person a while back when he swore at us because some students had plagiarized. I was not one of these students and it’s not only because I was not guilty that I did not appreciate getting sworn at but I really expected that a lecturer at university would have a better word, what with his vast vocabulary after all these years of studying. He nevertheless swore again in this mornings lecture and therefore I decided that you really need to be careful about whose advice you take. Which reminded me of my friend’s fantastic advice. She is always handing out valuable life lessons, facts and some wonderful insights into life and I forget them if I do not write them down. So her life lesson for today is that, “it’s in the shoulders”. This was in gym this morning that she piped up. My response between my puffing was, “what?” She is talking about walking. She says that most people place too much importance on the hips when the shoulders play a far greater role in the way in which we walk. So the next time you wish to walk like a catwalk model work your shoulders and not your hips.
