I walk

The wind whispers against my skin. The tiny hairs on the back of my neck tingle. My lungs fill with the cool air and I feel a smile spread across my face. The sound of my feet on the ground. My shadow in front of me. The best time of my day. All I have to do is just be me. All I have to do is just walk. Breathe. Walk. Move. Stretch. Feel. Dream.

I walk because it’s how I thank God for giving me a strong, healthy body.

I walk because it makes me feel alive.

I walk because I can.
