The gift of running shoes

Last Thursday I ran for the first time in a few months.  I am able to fully feel my feet now!  (I have waves of tingling and numbness every so often that come and go after a few minutes, sometimes in my hands as well.)

On the way home from the gym, I burst into tears.  I am so grateful that I can run.  I am so grateful I can play with my kids.  I am grateful I can go to the grocery store and walk up a flight of stairs. I am grateful that I can walk to the park. I am grateful that I can move around in my home.  And, I am grateful that I can stand, walk away from the computer, and go to bed with a thankful heart.
