Keep on Walking

"Well...
I got up and started walking...
I had no one to meet
And I had no taste for talking.

Well...
I walked into the morning light
    and felt the warm sunlight
    forming on my shoulders
Cos it hit me with no warning
    like a summer sky
    storming in my lungs.

Like a stone carried on the river
Like a boat sailing on the sea
Oh, I'll keep on walking.
Well....I'll keep on walking..."

{Keep on Walking by Passenger}

On days like this

With a place like this right around the corner

How can I NOT keep on walking?!

Even when I step in a hole

{accidentally, of course}

fall

and give myself a bloody knee

and send my camera flying into the dust

I will keep on walking.

Don't worry...the camera's fine.

As I was limping down my favorite path,

after said fall,

I couldn't help but chuckle...

First of all - I was way more worried about my camera than my bloody knee.

Then I couldn't help thinking about all those

falling down and getting back up platitudes.

Somehow, in this sunny, green, breezy, sweet smelling, bird chirping place

they all actually seemed true.

I didn't even consider not continuing.

Just dusted off...caught my breath...

and kept on walking.
