60 degrees on this fall morning

60 degrees on this fall morning. :). Cloudy and rainy. Despite the weather and my body and soul feeling extra heavy. I had to run. I had to run to mark the 5 year mark of my mother’s passing. I had to run because of Dallas, Minnesota,  and Louisiana. The quiet, coolness, fresh air, and movement were needed. I could be in peace, cry, and process my thoughts. This is when I wish my mother was here. This is when I long for her voice and words of wisdom. You still have to keep on and find other ways.
