I Walk For Me

Good evening. Friday blog. I have walked throughout my life many times, never giving it a chance to show me benefits. Always quitting. Entering recovery, I started replacing negatives with positives! As I moved through the program, I started seeing and feeling the benefits of a healthy lifestyle mentally, physically and spiritually! At that point in time for me, all 3 go hand in hand. Denny was already sick for 2 years, I kept telling myself, you can’t be sick too! Especially my mental state of mind. August 15th will be 5 years since I started walking! I never believed what sticking to something healthy for me, would do for me! Walking makes me happy. I do not give myself any time to think negatively before I leave in the morning. I grab a cup of coffee, make my bed, jump in my clothes and out the door. Getting that extra walk in tonight was brutal. I hate walking in the sun! I am not sad when I walk. I talk to God and to Denny. I envision him on a cloud. Drinking in all of that beauty over there is good for all parts of me. It definitely gave me strength to take care of him. Walking is a good part of me now, one I do not want to give up, unless I become physically unable. Walking is where I want to be. I feel centered. If that makes sense. Not to mention the healthy things it does for me. If you are not an exerciser, start out small. Take a walk around the block or down the street! I don’t think about grief when I’m walking, like a break. Find what works for you, baby steps to everything. God is good, He has been so good to me. I thank God always for the life He gave us together. We were not always obedient, certainly not perfect. Our perfect God, gave us a wonderful life, with all kinds of memories! Good night. God bless.❤️🤗🙏🏻🤗❤️
