Jury Duty Day

You might be confused as to why I am writing about Jury Duty on a blog about running. Well, that's just how my day started. I spent almost five hours today at Jury Duty, and in the end I did not have to sit in on a trial. I was excused. I had to make the decision whether or not to run my mile today, and I decided not to. Big surprise right? Haha. I just have to be in the right mindset and today I am pretty tired from waking up early and sitting around a court house. Who knew sitting could be so exhausting!

But I do want to talk about running. Recently I have been running from the truth, which is appropriate given I was at a court house all day where everything is about truth. I guess I am afraid of the future a bit. I haven't searched out truth as much as I should have. This could be truth of how I feel, truth in a religious sense, or some other type of truth.

I walked home after Jury Duty and I actually sort of got lost. I thought I was going in the general direction I needed to go, but I was wrong. Eventually I found that I was right near the end of the esplanade path. This is the path I run, but this time, I got to enjoy with a walk. Sometimes walking can clear the mind just as running does. Maybe not the same way, but today was a walking sort of day.

I ended up seeing some graffiti on one of the bridges that said: FEARLESS

And best of all.....I found some truth. :)
