Walking

Last fall, I was reading a novel about nuns.  At one point, one of the nuns took a walk at lunchtime to reconnect with God.  My first thought when I read that was, "I wish I was a nun, so that I could take lunchtime walks to reconnect with God!"  Then I realized how silly that was—I don't have to be a nun to do that!

Since then, walks during my lunch break have become one of my spiritual practices.  I walk and I pray and I try to pay attention.  Sometimes I put my ipod on shuffle and listen to whatever comes on.  In each season, I am grateful to live in such a beautiful place.  

Yesterday, I brought my camera along; here are some of the things I saw.
