Walking is a common scriptural term used to describe an individual's earthly pilgrimage. It's also a form of exercise for 100 million Americans. A good walk is most enlightening-a merging of the visible and invisible worlds.
Children enrich any walk with their own special thoughts, feelings, and sensory impressions.
They bring innocence, wide-eyed wonder and enthusiasm that knows no bounds on a walk. Their small steps are accompanied by great leaps in imagination. Spring is a time of flowers, singing birds, sweet-smelling air, emerald green grass and trees shimmering with new leaves. Maybe it's the outwardly stern image of the serious exercise-walker, striding with erect posture, a jabbing arm swing, and unsmiling face that suggests walkers can't walk and laugh at the same time.
