Walking , Therapy for life.

Today was one of those rare weekend days that I get off the Hamster wheel of life. And decided with no plans or routes to walk. 5 hours later returned from a walk which took in,roads,lanes,fields,hills villages rivers river banks cliff tops ,beaches and finally a stroll in the see.
Yes my legs are shattered but my body feels healthy and my spirit is refreshed for a time. All thoughts of my work and financial troubles evaporated for a day.   Blessed be.

A day to contemplate

As usual at the moment sleep was absent last night ,a tell tale sign that work is stressing me, add to this earache and its sure fire stress, not as bad as last time but non the less there.Usual cure is to sit in the countryside and just chill but i had a cleaning job to do,but at least i get to have a 2.5 mile walk there and back in the sunshine. On my journeys it was nice to see a bramble in full flower covered in at least 4 species of bee with honey bees being the most numerous. Along side fed wasps, hoverflies and the odd meadow brown butterfly. Also a sure sign that natures autumn has started were the large number of silver y moth on the wing. Once Christmas is gone and my trip to New Zealand in February has finished i really need to think about a job that doesn't make me feel so down and ill. I need to follow my greener life or my body will bust. Sorry for that pun .
