I really enjoyed the nature walk we did the past week on Friday. Although I initially thought of it as a way to have class cancelled, I ended up actually taking a walk off the sidewalk. I thought about something other than weekend plans or texting people on my phone. I realize how much of the time I spent wasting the alone walks from building to building here on campus. I find it natural to either reach for a phone, or simply walk briskly from place to place.
This time I actually slowed down to enjoy the scenery. Although there weren't any life changing thoughts on that walk, I now have been attempting to look around more while on campus. I am really glad for that time these past two weeks I made an effort to enjoy the outdoor sunshine while getting lost in thoughts, not texts. (Especially with this drastic change to April snow).
Katie, I'm pleased that this works so well for you. LDL
