I Walked

Yesterday I took a morning nature walk.
I didn't think about quilting.
I didn't think about cooking. Although my stomach was seriously growling.
I didn't think about preschool.
I didn't think about VBS. Or swimming lessons.
I didn't think about my blog. Much.
I might have thought about the book I'm supposed to review soon. It seemed appropriate to my activity.
I thought about praying.
But mostly I thought about the beauty around me.
And like Anne Shirley says, I "breathed a prayer".
Because when the world sparkles and glows around us, it's hard not to exhale gratitude.
