But if we didn't speak of what haunts or at least challenges us, how could anyone know? My heart with your mother, and with you. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-26663873329933162662012-10-09T09:49:43.314-07:002012-10-09T09:49:43.314-07:00Marylinn, well, now I am in tears because that sec...Marylinn, well, now I am in tears because that second graph illuminated how I think my mother, for whom walking has become very difficult, must feel and I am grateful, only that, to be allowed inside that experience. <br /><br />And the writing of it is simply exquisite. 37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-46491454554839122452012-10-09T09:45:05.402-07:002012-10-09T09:45:05.402-07:00Penelope - Thank you.

I was stuck trying to come up with a title, so I walked around the block. Nothing came to me, so I started to walk around again, and stopped and sat for a while on a bench, just ruminating. Decided to turn back home, and when I got there, my neighbor/friend was sitting on my front steps using my wi-fi. I told her my dilemma, ran some titles past her, and she gave me some input. The result: I now have a title for the MS, and it's already in the mail to a press who requested to read it.<br /><br />I can't thank you enough for contributing in such a positive way to the evolution of what I hope will be my first book.<br /><br />Your post made me think seriously about the fact that I take walking for granted, something which I'll never do again.<br /><br />Bless you.<br /><br />xoT. https://www.blogger.com/profile/16509409207991963533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-40387131064999928492012-10-07T11:53:21.808-07:002012-10-07T11:53:21.808-07:00Rubye - I miss walking.

With the bus for longer distances, walking was the way to get to school, to friends' houses, to church, to the market, the library, the soda fountain, dance lessons, even the movies. Living briefly in D.C., I got to walk a bigger city and found so much (depending on the weather) within walking distance. I'm glad that my dreams still have me mobile. I'll take that as a good sign. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-77137683215282594392012-10-07T11:48:19.964-07:002012-10-07T11:48:19.964-07:00Elizabeth - Thank you.

Then in college (same town), we started riding bicycles plus walking. It was nothing; just what we did. Today I drive everywhere. I miss walking.Rubye Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02511953177053448513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-45608132271589371742012-10-06T14:37:38.148-07:002012-10-06T14:37:38.148-07:00Thank you for posting that -- I really loved it.
