Thank knees

I am grateful for my knees and the time to use them while they still work. I have hiked to ruins of castles, abandoned hillsides, fortresses and vista points that change the way I see the world. Whether up stairs or sloped inclines, raw paths or paved stones smoothed by time. I am grateful for what my knees provide me, for what they show me and what they allow me. Thank you knees.

This is true now and always, but particularly when I am reminded that the world is a dangerous place. For some the wars of the world are not over and walking is much harder and even impossible for so many. I am grateful for my knees and the time to use them.
