So as I tried to find
something to write about or even a concept to ponder, I realized I had no
ideas. None. Nada. Zip. Zero. This prompted me to take a short stroll outside
and get some fresh air so I could contemplate how I was going to do this. Then
it hit me nearly instantly. The energy in the air, the clear mindset while
walking, the open pours of thought. Just by walking I came to this revelation
and became a little ecstatic. Gros’s philosophy of walking really hit me that
you can escape some kind of sense of routine and gather energy from the earth
around us. Granted if you are walking around in a big city full of noisy people
and you are in the center of some kind of negative energy then you really gotta
re-evaluate where you want to walk.
No matter the reason you walk: to go somewhere, to see
someone, because you felt like it, or even to achieve some kind of cosmic
balance; you know that it will be worth it in the end, but the actual action of
walking can be taken for granted. Think about those who may not be able to
enjoy the lovely strolls we can take either because they physically cant or some
other reason.

Your post was such a good read! I agree with you on how walking can be energizing and feeling free to just get out in the air!
ReplyDeleteI find it interesting that while deciding on a comment related to walking you walked I believe this is what philosophy is all about the whole point of the class.
