Just a Quickie

My neighbors and I walk every day with our dogs. We call it a "puppy walk". It is only for 10-15 minutes (quickie) around the block. You wouldn't think that much conversation could happen on such a walk, but believe me... we talk about so much. We have times of laughter, tears, and even bitching at each other. Sometimes for kicks, we walk in our pajamas in broad daylight. We walk in snowsuits all winter long. I say that I walk with my neighbors, but they are really friends. No they are really sisters. It doesn't take that long to develop a relationship with people... Just a quickie. But consistency is key.

I also realized that this pays off in my daily walk / faith with God. I started doing a Community Bible Study with my sister. I do a little "homework" by reading the Bible each day and basically spending time with God. I have found that this has been such a great investment. I used to do much more Bible study stuff, but got out of practice with the business of life. Now that I am back in tune to God's word and stronger in my faith than before, I notice a difference - a good one. I am more patient, kind, positive. Anyhoo... Quickies are good things.

Gotta go. I am going on a "puppy walk". :)
