July Walks: Echinacea Metaphor

July 20,2024

I chose walking in my neighborhood park for 1.5 hours over driving 30 minutes to the pretend AT trail. That’s because I want to get over to my Mom’s home and entice HER to go outside! Gratitude for walking out my door into woods filled me! The paved path winds through a meadow, around a pond and through woods with tall trees. Nice variety for my mind to wander. What caught my eye more than anything was a patch of Echinacea flowers. I noticed that each one was unique in its shape, combination of petals, shade of pink, and various injuries. I thought of all of us having our own lives of strengths, challenges, bruises, withered dreams, and all that. That’s why we need to craft our own versions of fulfillment and choose our paths to meet our own dreams! Walk on!
