Heart Steps

At the beginning of last week I taught several days in Palm Beach at the Public Health Department, and had some wonderful walks around the older neighborhoods.  There are days I find I’ve lost touch with me and tend to live too much in my head.  This disconnect, puts me in a box where I slosh around old memories or create life dreams detached from reality.   Old memories and future dreams can be good for the soul, but stay there too long and we begin to miss what Nepo calls “heart steps” that are achieved by living in the present.  The old tree had survived by climbing outside her walls, and shared a heart step with me that day.  Don’t miss any heart steps today.
