It might sound like a random invitation, but at a recent holiday gathering of women friends, a community acquaintance, Terry, invited me to go for a walk.
We had been talking about feeling a bit stressed and sad watching some of the rude behavior of others whether in the media or in our daily lives.
Always a positive person, Terry explained that she had some therapy she wanted to share with me. She explained how she recently invited a friend on a long beach walk, and how wonderful she felt afterward.
She noted that her mood had improved. She said because of the conversation during the walk, she felt a closer connection to her friend.
