Soren Kierkegaard on walking

Kierkegaard

Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday, I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right.

         --Søren Kierkegaard

A Tiny Garden on 2 August 2025

 

Located on the corner of Westminster and Nelson, this tiny garden brings happiness to many people who stop and admire the flowers and beauty. One of my favourites!

Morning walk on this day seven years ago; how innocent even seven years ago seems today...
