“Everything flows and nothing abides, everything gives way and nothing stays fixed.” ~Heraclitus~ Yesterday I went to Yoga at 8:30; exercise at 9:30; then Dianne England Callahan and I walked around the lake at Cane Creek Park last night. Although sometimes I really have to push myself, I know how much better getting physical exercise makes me feel. The morning after I have exercised is when I feel the effects the most. As we walked last night, we passed a man and his dog. The man was having a really hard time walking. As we passed him, he apologized, and explained that he had a stroke. He was certainly trying, and he made me realize that just being physically able to walk is a gift! We passed other walkers, runners, families with babies in strollers...thoughts were running through my mind. We could see that the man with the dog was struggling physically, but I realized that, most likely, everyone we passed was dealing with a problem or a heartache...just as I am. The days these past 4 weeks have gradually disappeared...slowly melting Ing into weeks...soon a month. In a way, I want to hold onto the present because having Avery for my grandson was worth every tear Ive shed...every pain coursing through my body as I grieve for the loss of his life. However, I hope that eventually I can focus on the memories of him, and the joy he gave me in his 16 years of life! Pics: Cane Creek Park, beginning and end of our walk.
