I know the picture isn’t perfect, I wish I had something other than just my cell phone with me, but on my walk this morning I saw a pair of ducks guarding their nest. They built their nest on a rock in the middle of the river, on a rock and were admantly trying to protect the nest as the water rushed by. They spotted me quickly, the male duck jumped off the rock and started swimming around, while the female stayed with the nest. I am not sure if they thought I would jump in and try to steal their eggs because that definitely was NOT in the cards this morning!
They were clucking and quacking the entire time. It was adorable and sweet. It made me think about our own families and how protective we are, and despite the precarious situations we may find ourselves in, we are able to overcome and grow and learn.
I am growing and learning new ways of being as I am recovering from my cervical spine issue. I will write more about that later, but for now, I want to share with you my journey in walking and nutrition that has made me feel so much better in such a short amount of time.
Take care of yourself. Only you can do it. Be well. Till my next walk…
