Recharging

She was surprised, “You’ve walked 13,000 steps, want a ride back to MD Anderson?”   My afternoon had been a race around our campus, and ended with a final meeting at another hospital.  I smiled, “Nah, I need the walk, it’s the way I recharge”.  The rain, the master artist, had left a path of fresh vibrant colors, and several times, I stopped to enjoy rain licked flower petals.  Most of us spend our days working hard to connect with others and ourselves.  Author John Maxwell reminds us that connection begins with a commitment, and commitments take energy.  I’ve learned, I am only effective when I plug my energy leaks and keep my batteries charged.  Are you leaking energy or in need of a recharge?
