Miles 3 miles at Williams
park
Total 42.6
Goal for now 100
Didn’t walk till about 7 PM and it was very warm and
humid but it was a very peaceful time. There was a lot of people at the park
and lots of very young children being coached for football. They are a lot of
fun to watch. I also love walking in the
evening with a setting sun and beautiful long shadows.
I found my first fall leaf and was terribly excited
for fall in my mind means cool, pleasant weather. I love fall and thrilled to,
for the first time be able to watch nature change its look on a daily basses
through these walks. I was reading an old Readers Digest and the article was addressing
what keeps a person young. The magic ingredient is wonder. That is the ability
to find wonder and awe all around you. When that is gone and you simply go
about your days working and just trying to get by, and something in your spirit
just dries up and dies. I must agree. I praise God I still find wonder and awe
at my first fall leaf or a squirrel jumping out in my path. Theses walks have
slowly become a need to get out of the busy world and see the wonder all
around me.
May it have God’s
Blessing.
