Walking

One of the wonderful things about walking is that you can’t take all the steps at once. It just doesn’t work that way.

Even when you see the entire length of the journey ahead, you never feel the overwhelm of thinking you need to take all the steps at once. The steps come one after the other, the way they always do. We understand and accept this.

It helps when we can bring this kind of practical patience to the rest of our lives.

Step by step. As if we were walking.
