I decided to shut out those negative voices and took the advice of a friend. I loaded down a rucksack and hit the trail. Rucking is good for the body and mind. The problem is that sometimes my mind thinks I can still do things to the level I used to. So, with fifty pounds in my backpack, I set out on a two-mile trail. By the end, I was praying I could just make it back to my truck. The sun was relentlessly assaulting me. I hadn’t had any water before setting out. Did I mention there were NO clouds? I was dying.
That was a great read. Been there and done that. Wondering if I was gonna make it, but I/we did! I’m glad you were able to take the time to get out and do what you do best to clear your mind of all those negative thoughts that assault us every day. Thanks for sharing as always! Love and hugs!
The mother in me brings a few things to mind.
However, the reader in me thoroughly enjoyed your story!!!
Haha next time I’ll drink water
The deep end of the pool is where the magic happens. I've never heard a good story that started with, "So I stayed home and ate a salad."
Hahaha that’s true
