walk
Are we already writing about broken streaks? Perhaps I should clarify, although it won't help my case - I didn't intend to publish anything on Saturday. That doesn't help the crickets that showed up yesterday, does it? OH WELL. Here we are anyway, today, and that is the important bit.
Today my husband and I went on a hike. It was maybe four miles. You know what is great about a walk? When you get to the end of the day, you are able to say that you did something. It doesn't really matter how far or fast you went - if you covered even the walk around the block, you can end your day with something on your done list. Your legs moved. Your body followed. You are living, breathing human being. It is a great feeling.
Bonus points that the weather is amazing for hiking right now. It stayed around or just under 70 degrees the whole while we hiked. We went slowly, and we had the breath and fresh outlooks to have an interesting conversation as we went.
I've heard that it's easier to have hard conversations or talks about controversial topics in the car since there isn't eye contact as one person is driving and (hopefully) has their eyes on the road. I think similar is true for hiking single-track trail. My husband and I plan our lives during our long car rides and walks in the woods.
What is one thing you like to do during the day that makes your day feel more complete - like it was full and productive, but only one thing caused you to feel that way?
