it's good just to walk alone and gather your thoughts so that you can let the creative juices flow. Sometimes I really need to write a pro and con list in order to make a decision about something. It might be a decision regarding what I want to do next with my time whether it's go back to school, move to another state, visit a relative in another state or a very important decision about a relationship. Walking and just thinking things out can inspire you to move forward in a positive way in your life. When you get home you can write down your thoughts.

There's nothing more inspiring to me than sitting by the lake in Prospect Park, feeding the ducks and talking to my husband. Sometimes packing a picnic lunch and finding a shady bench and just watching the passersby is inspiring to both of us. One day we saw a young woman walking a dog, pushing a baby in a stroller and running in place as the dog was going near a tree. Now that's multi-tasking! Another day a man was riding a unicycle while he was juggling what looked like bowling pins all around the park on the bike path! You can get a lot of inspiration to talk about, write about, photograph, write a song about, and draw while taking a walk and taking time out to really watch what is going on around you. Enjoy your walking!
