walking

I have been feeling a bit in the dumps lately and really didn't want to go to the gym today. Exercise always makes me feel better yet sometimes it doesn't seem enough to convince me to get off my duff and do it. As a compromise I decided to go for an hour long walk in my neighborhood. I was hurrying to get home before it got too dark so I could at least start my walk in the light. The most glorious thing about it was that it stayed light the entire walk! I left just after five and got back around six. I really love that the air was clear from smog and the sky was blue. Near the end of my walk I realized that I was feeling much better about life and that things can't be all bad. It felt good to get some fresh air and have time to think without interruption. What a good walk!
