A Mind over Body event

Rosie stares at the path that is well lit and has signs all over.
   
She takes a deep breath and walks gingerly towards the starting line while mumbling to herself, “I have to do this for myself to make a better tomorrow, and moreover, it is just a mind over body thing.”
   
In a few minutes, the ribbon is cut, and the flag is waved.
 
The crowd cheers.
   
Rosie waits up patiently for her turn to cross the offset point and open a new chapter by abandoning all her fears and apprehensions of being disabled for over a year.
