Issue #14: “The Slow Walk

Recently, I took my granddog on a walk and realized I’d left my earbuds. At first I was a bit upset, then I begin to pay attention to the sounds around me, being intentional with each step…The crunch of leaves, a child’s laughter in the distance, I realized the world had been speaking to me all along…

Slowness is not wasted time. It’s a recalibration. A reminder that we’re not machines but humans, wired for noticing, savoring and belonging to the rhythm of the world.

Today, take a walk without an agenda. No steps to count, no calls to catch up on. Just walk. See what you notice.
