Do you read your horoscope in the newspaper? Maybe you subscribe to one online? I’m don’t take the little paragraphs of wisdom to heart, but I do read them and sometimes they just fit. I wonder, who writes these things and do they know me today, because it sure sounds like they must!
Scorpio (Oct.24-Nov.21) Gentle movement will bring harmony to your world. Walking is a kind of active meditation. Also, the sensory input of the changing scenery is a wonderful workout for your brain.
Walking is what got me through Leroy’s cancer battle. Seriously,if I hadn’t taken the time to pound the dirt on the canal or walk around the neighborhood, I’m not sure what would have happened to me. The walking gave me the outlet to process what was happening in my world. It also allowed me to step away from it for a few minutes and breathe. That was important too because when I walked back in the door, I was better prepared to continue the day. We never knew what the day would bring, but walking had cleared a space that would help me deal with it.
I’m not sure about the harmony part; I probably have found more harmony these days AC, (after cancer), than during the fight. Harmony, like peace, is elusive once you’ve been to cancer world. I guess it’s something I continue to strive toward.
I have miles to go.

I once was able to run and I ran lots…just running for exercise initially but then I found that the longer I ran, I eventually got my second wind and the endorphins kicked in and I could then focus my mind on an assortment of topics unrelated to my running. The scenery even in winter was uplifting. I really miss being able to it but my body will no longer tolerate the pounding it once absorbed. So I have found an elliptical machine along with my Kindle and off I go lost in the pages of a great story. Amazing how quickly time passes when you are focused on something other than the exercise.
Laurie, continue to walk, enjoy the scenery and allow the memories of times past to flood your soul. Draw upon the energy and allow them to speed you along towards home.
