26. I Love ... Walking

The ability to.

Many, many, many times,

 I have gotten out of my car

in a parking lot
and the thought comes to me:
"I am so blessed to be able to
walk."

I suppose it comes to me there
to supercede
any thoughts of whining
about how far away I had to park.

The fact that I can rise

when I want to,

and with ease proceed to

wherever I want to go,

is not something that

I take for granted.

There are times that I feel

like I could

walk and walk and walk

forever.

An evening walk is such a pleasant thing.

But way too often I make some excuse

that gets me off in another

direction

and I let go

of something

that could bring me such pleasure.

I need to walk.

More.
