To Deactivate or Activate?
For the last half hour, my neighbor, a Lilliputian woman in her mid-30s who already is a few pounds south of the century mark, has been running up and down the 50-yard hill separating our houses. Her second-grade daughter joined her for one loop, so mom must be trying to keep an eye on her kids while squeezing in a 5K run before they head to school. Deactivated for obsessiveness? Or Activated for "getting it done" despite time constraints? Who am I to cast the obsessiveness stone from within my glass home? And it takes guts to put on this kind of show for the neighborhood. Activated.
