Savannah Walk #2


Stillness.



This can be difficult to find during stressful times.


A nature walk or any walk at all with eyes and heart open can be calming.


A walk with moments to stop and take in what is present is truly a gift.


Yesterday, I was also reminded of the importance of being flexible.

Plans can change in a moment. A parent feels ill. A person doesn't show up to provide help.
Yesterday, was spent at my parents' home. It was relatively quiet.


My mini laptop also decided to fall ill yesterday. This provided another test for remaining flexible. I am typing this on my Mom's Mac (I'm a PC lady). Learning a few new tricks for a relatively old dog. I've also had to postpone the Newsletter. I've prided myself in getting it out on schedule each month, but have to give myself a bit of a break this month. It should be out on Monday. Thanks for your patience and good will.

  2. Thanks Jennifer. It's been a crazy sort of week. Every day is unpredictable. Glad I can be a help to my Mom.

  3. I have been thinking about you a lot this week. Flexibility seems to be so important...or at least I found it so. Will be sending love and extra energy your way for the weekend.

    1. Thanks Pam. I know that you understand this all first-hand. I think we are moving in the right direction. I don't know how my mom has been coping. I'm tired and I've only been here for a week!
