I've walked 4 miles in your shoes today

And I saw about 6 other walkers around Corvallis. I walked to the bank and to return books to the library.  It was warm.  I took the dog with me.  I was thirsty and purchased myself an iced soy latte but then felt guilty for the plastic cup and consumption I didn't really need. I'm feeling the need for a deeper fast.  A time of non consumption.  A dropping, dropping, dropping further in to find what is essential and what is non essential.  Walking helps.
