A Walk in the Park
Yesterday morning after I finished my run, I walked out on the pier that graces the park, as I usually do, to enjoy the view while I cooled down, stretched, and practiced some end-of-workout meditation.

Farewell to a Phenomenal Woman
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqOqo50LSZ0 My heart was beyond heavy when I heard of Maya Angelou's passing today. When I think of all she has accomplished in her young 86 years of age, I stand in awe. What an admirable poet, author, activist, and woman. In her honor, here are ten of my favorite quotes by her: 10. "You… Continue reading Farewell to a Phenomenal Woman
