It doesn't have to make sense

Sometimes I just get the strangest feelings. Today even though I had a really strong aqua Zumba class I had this nagging feeling that I should go try to jog.

Now if you know me, you would know how strange the statement that is. My legs are not the same length. Some days I don't even walk well. So what in the world makes me think that I need to try jogging?

Why? Because one thing I always try to do is listen to my body. Today it just happens that my body was saying hey Karen let's go for a jog!

Before I could change my mind I went to the park where there's a half mile trail and I started off. The first few attempts weren't that great but as I made it further around I started to average 50% walking and 50% slow jogging. As I was rounding the bend to where my car is parked I wondered what this would do to my body and I couldn't help but wonder if I'd regret it later. It was at that point that I looked down at the ground and saw a path of leaves, each shaped like a heart.

It was in that moment that I realized I made the best choice. Doesn't matter how fast I went. It doesn't matter how good it looked. What matters is that I did it!
