I took this photograph one evening while on my daily five-mile walk. There's so much going on around me, it doesn't even feel like I've walked that far (well, maybe by the end of the trek). I can truly say I know what they mean by it's the "journey." Not only are the sunsets incredible at that time of day, but the evening sounds are very blissful. Some people use their iPOD or some form of music to listen to while walking or jogging, which I can understand it helps to pass the time, and some just really enjoy listening to music. I too love music, but the hum of the night sounds takes me to a whole different realm. It's so soothing and relaxing hearing the frogs, katydids, cicadas and the birds. The whole scenario makes me feel very blessed to live in a country where I'm free to enjoy all these elements surrounding me. I soak up the sights and sounds, so it's not just physical exercise, it's mental, emotional and spiritual.
