Obama!


Doce Vida Fitness Inc. closed shop for two days to attend the Inauguration.
We felt compelled to experience the historical event and knew we would come out of it with a feeling of renewal. A feeling of renewal has overwhelmed us...
A feeling of renewal is so important to ones spirit and being refreshed with new ideas, and enthusiasm only helps us to put even more inspiration into our business philosophy.

First came checking into a hotel just eight miles outside of the downtown DC area. After a smooth check in process, we walked the four short blocks to the Metro and hopped on the train. During our short 30-minute ride into the festivities we met so many other like minded people who also traveled great distances to absorb the feeling of peace and hope. We met two friends from Oakland, CA, an older couple from Ohio, a family from Minnesota, a single woman from New York City, several second and third generation Washingtonians, a sweet man and woman from Orange County, CA, and a couple from South Carolina. Everyone was glowing and sharing stories of their travels and life stories. We all listened to one another with admiration because each person had something different to voice and each person offered an amazing significance to the conversation. Our cheekbones were sore when we reached our stop, we had been smiling and laughing the entire time.

Then came the crowds of people walking the streets together on our way to witness history. No pushing or shoving. We all walked together saying hello and how are you?

Then came Aretha - her voice filled our hearts with sparks of bliss that we will keep with us forever. Recalling her voice and listening to her music will forever make us think of happy and hopeful times.

Then came our new leader, Barack H. Obama his words filled our minds and hearts with everlasting belief... Yes we can!

We are so very thankful to have had the opportunity to be there...

Live the Sweet Life...
