Many years ago, it was my routine on the weekends, to drive to the town I currently reside, to walk on the beach. Every other weekend, my sister would come from Chicago and join me. We would walk and scour for rocks, glass, and other cool beach finds. It was our favorite thing to do together. She moved to Virginia some years back and I was in the habit of doing alone. In the last year, I have gotten out of the habit of doing 6:30 am walks because, well, I live here now and I can go any time I want to. :)
This last Monday, my sister and I decided to start walking together again. We leave our homes at the same time, I walk to my lake and she walks to hers. We meander and meet back at home base an hour later. Home base is our computers that supply out constant and daily interactions. I miss her presence but as I walk, I know she is with me.
We both feel better; mind, body, and spirit.
