I Woke Up in the Middle of the Night This Morning
© 2008 Robert Wesley Branch
I woke up in the middle of the night this morning
and cried
and prayed
and remembered
and pledged to God
and danced
and sang
and felt sorry
and regretted
and buried old bones
and dug them up
and threw them around the room
and was quiet,
then hopeful again.
Day 365 - Washington - 5:03 am - finishing up my 4.35-mile walk this morning. One year ago today, I started these morning walks/runs and I have only missed one day since then. The morning I missed, I was in Baltimore and even though Druid Hill Park was nearby, I opted not to run in an unfamiliar environment at 4 am, so I skipped that day. Other than that, I have been successful at creating a daily exercise habit. God is good.
