Day 071l: When walking becomes a Prayer … (June 24, 2019)
“During any walk of any significant distance, whether hobbling along or moving smoothly, whether with the Sun at your back or the cold rain dripping down your collar, you are more yourself than under any other circumstance,. For in these times you walk so far that you are no longer merely that self, but have rather joined fully to the world – invisibly joined, intimately joined, indelibly joined. Indeed had a religion been founded on this principle, in truth even on this principle alone, all who walk would be fully converted. For in these times there is no proof of God require, for that proof was in the world. It was always surrounding you and always nearby. In this sense the way you visited the Divine most closely was on foot…. Your walking becomes a devotion; your footsteps become a communion.” ~ inspired by Elizabeth McCracken
