Leaving a desk behind

My desk bathed in sunlight

I have been holed up in a vacant office at the University of Johannesburg doing a block of work, drinking awful coffee, eating poorly and certainly not walking. And I have not done so for 4 days.

It makes me really appreciate my freedom to walk this morning, to be in the fresh air, to feel strong and well. And to have my own rhythm back.

I do appreciate when work comes my way but I am also aware of how I love my life without it.
