My thoughts:
1. It was another 1.8-mile walk around my neighbourhood on this cool and crisp Saturday morning. I did it in a little over 35 minutes.
2. Nobody was outside this morning walking or jogging or walking their dog(s). I was all alone – just me, the continuous hits playing on my iPod Shuffle, and the coolest music video I’ve ever seen – the imagery and scenery all around me. This neighbourhood is beautiful. I wish I discovered it 13 years ago when I first moved here. I wasn’t living back then. Now I am alive !
3. Constitution, Independence, Liberty, Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Franklin, and Hamilton: These are the names of the 8 streets within my neighbourhood. Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Benjamin Franklin were the authors of the United States Declaration Of Independence. It was created on July 04TH 1776. The United States Constitution was created in 1787 and then ratified in 1788.
4. During my Active Duty Air Force years I had to run a mile-and-a-half once a year within a specified period of time. I always beat the time, but I never enjoyed it. Some 20 years later I walk that same distance once a week, and I love it. I actually look forward to Saturday mornings because of the walk. It’s a physical walk that symbolizes my spiritual walk with my loving friends and family as we follow the ultimate Leader – The King Of Kings.
5. 2007 was the year that everything changed for me in my Life. I’m not re-living 2007 again. I’m making 2008 even better. It’s one thing to wake up from the darkness of night (1967-2006). It’s another thing to chase that daylight and make an impact in my Life. That’s what I’m all about for 2008. I’m ready to take the stand and be ‘Fully Engaged’.
