I'm Proud of Me

I am damn  proud of myself.  Walking almost every day has become so much easier.

It feels good.
It feels right.
I think about it when I'm not walking.
At the few times my mental chatter says no,
     it's like my body takes over and I walk anyway.

The only time I don't walk is when either my knee or my back are too painful.  And then, I'll maybe walk around the backyard, very slowly and steadily, but it feels good.

Sometimes I walk slowly just to walk, and that's okay.

Since I last wrote on April 20, I've walked a total of 12.77 miles!!  TWELVE POINT SEVEN SEVEN MILES!!

I've found a new route from home which is 1.86 miles and I like it.

I also love the wind blowing on me, the birds singing, the new Spring growth, the beautiful smells from the newly budding flowering trees.

Most of the time I don't hurt. 

Thank You God.
