A Long Walk

Yesterday I went out for a walk. Not a jog or a run, but a walk. The weather was beautiful (which seemed a little odd because the heat was on this morning, but that’s okay) and it was just the kind of day when you walk and look around. It was so nice outside, I just kept on walking and walking. I thought about so many things. About my birthday coming up and how everything happens for a reason. Even the fact that my kids didn’t want to go walking with me. While I did all of that walking through the orchard and past the creek, my mind got a well needed rest. I had a thought here or there about my upcoming wedding anniversary, the needs of my children and a few other things, but for the most part, I just saw the beauty of the things around me.
