At last, I have started walking on a regular basis again. That took long enough. I’m still struggling with finding the motivation
to do it, but somehow or other I am getting out and doing it on most days. The average goal is to walk for an hour a day;
I’ve been hitting that more often than not.
Life is cruising along; when the situation calls for it I
socialize and participate in whatever is happening. I do well enough. The rest of the time I quietly live in my
little house and never tire of the beauty that surrounds me. The green grass and trees, the blue blue sky,
the birds and the animals as they play, the fields that are planted with this year’s
crop and the cows grazing in the meadows of the next farm over. All of these things thrill me, they are ever
changing and they make my life a joy.
Summer is here again and once again we find ourselves trying
to come up with a plan for a short vacation.
The desire is there, the destination is chosen; it comes down to finding
the time to go and acquiring adequate accommodations. If it is meant to be, we will work it out, if
not I don’t mind. We shall see. When we begin thinking about finding the time
for a vacation and look at the calendar suddenly the summer zips by and is gone
before it has begun. That is never
good. So I say let’s stop thinking about
vacation for a while and enjoy the summer.
You know, for all my talk about walking, I am really not in
the mood for it today. Don’t ask me what
I would rather do instead, I don’t know; I only know that putting in a walk today
sounds like so much work. Maybe I’ll
change my mind here in a little bit…
There is always hope.
