Morning walker

It was wet and dark when I set off for a walk this morning. There is a new cycle path along the shore and it feels a safe place to be as the sun comes up.
Today I met with a friend from when I was a child .We haven't met for 40 years ...It was strange to hear of her life with its fair share of sorrows.
Life is hard to grasp and savour as we rush through the days.
Some stories are best not told I feel and look forward to another meeting with more focus on sharing life now.
