04/27/2022 Left? or Right?
Today is one of the first days since moving to downtown Fort Worth that I have gone on a walk that was outside of my normal walking route. I noticed I was getting pretty anxious so after I ate dinner I went left instead of right hence where the title of this post came from. For those of you who do not know me that well I love to be outside and one with nature as long as my allergies allow me to! More recently in my life journey I have noticed that source sends messages to me through nature and I will listen to my intuition and either A stay away or B follow the noise. Well today I heard more birds chirping and more cicadas on the left than I did the right. Along the left side of the walk I went down a private driveway which lead to the parking area of a high end apartment complex that had a security guard at the gate and a railroad track and the end of the road so I then turned back around and continued my exploration where I found some cool graffiti that inspired me to come home and start working on my creative endeavor! Although this was not the end of my walk as it was relatively close to my apartment and I still felt quite anxious. Later in the walk when I was walking across the bridge to go to the other side of Fort Worth (where I had initially planned on exploring) I found a set of stairs, me being curious I went down and halfway down I heard what seemed to be a ball bouncing on the ground and the further I went down I found 2 basketball courts where I met a guy named Arun who I will in the future shoot hoops with as he is local to the area and goes down there daily and maybe one day have him as a guest on my podcast That’s life. Further along the walk I saw 3 ducks, 2 black and one white which then ended up leading me to a running & walking / bike trail where I have found a new reading spot by a duck pond! Along the walk I was able to capture a cool picture of the city skyline at night (will not be posting as my current camera quality is not the best iPhone 8) but I will soon be acquiring a camera to better document my journey. The moral of todays post is to step outside of your comfort zone as you never know what good is on the left side! – Les Cooter
