For the past couple of weeks, Hubby has had to go to work early and has not been able to walk with me. I have discovered some advantages and disadvantages to walking alone.
ADVANTAGES:
1. The walk is very serene, and quiet.
2. I walk longer.
3. When I sing out loud there is no-one to complain.
4. If I trip or fall I don't have to be embarrassed cause there is no-one to
see my klutziness.
5. It gives me lots of time to think and ponder my life.
DISADVANTAGES:
1. The walk is too serene, and way way too quiet.
2. The walk only SEEMS longer.
3. When I sing out loud I look like a fool when someone passes me.
4. If I trip or fall there is no-one to help me back up.
5. I think and ponder about my life!
It all depends on how you look at it - doesn't it? Some days walking alone is an advantage and then other days it might be a disadvantage. This post could also be titled "Walking alone vs lonely walking": The walk is the same - the only thing different is the perspective.
While I sometimes enjoy walking alone, I never enjoy lonely walking. So, two feet walking is OK occasionally, but really, I think I prefer four feet! Thank goodness Hubby's early morning schedule is done!
I love this post for that list alone. It puts things in perspective. The fact that the list's advantages and disadvantages reflects itself so perfectly makes complete sense.
ReplyDeleteOh and I love how having someone there to complain about your singing out loud beats out feeling like a fool for singing out loud on your own:D
The other great thing about having hubby along with me when I sing is he makes up the funniest verses to songs. However, again going with the perspective theme - while his verses are hilarious - have you ever laughed really hard AND ran at the same time? It doesn't work so well!
