Its hard to be confronted with the fact that Brony is not here with me on a daily basis, I miss her smile, laughter, passion for life, energy for everything, its a feeling is compounded as I sit her and prepare for a trip that is as much hers as mine. We both enjoying walking together, running together, kyaking together, eating together. Things that can be taken for granted when everything is going OK in your world, we always said we were blessed that we learned to appreciate the little things and we gave thanks for that and being together everyday.
Walking from A to B, seems like a straight forward comment, if your talking about a simple stroll somewhere closeby. But Im realising that doing 35-40km perday is going to be a physically demanding task, although Ive been training daily ie walking 2-3 hours during the week and doing 7-8hrs on the weekend its already giving the old knees a little niggle that Im hoping will not cause anymore dramas.
Walking has been very threraputic for my mind and heart as journey through the grief process, allowing all the thoughts and emotions to roll in and out during a walk is good as it keeps it interesting, I'm definately don't get bored.
"The journey of life happens one moment at a time, we decide each moment and can create our individual journey as we want to experience it, there are too many things we have no control over, but we can control how we act upon these things that impact our journey."
Ok .. walk update... flight is booked so Im definately departing on this journey, my hope is to complete in 10weeks.
