Coming round the Mountain


You can certainly take your mind off things on a long walk. The scenery is distracting and can make some great conversation points, but there’s also bits in between the highlights that you want to discuss. It gives you a chance to spend some time with someone and catch up on the things that you’ve missed, compare lives and make future plans. You can share news about other friends and compare your lives. You can discuss hopes and dreams and plan how to get there. You could even just talk about current affairs. Passers-by also seem a lot friendlier in rural areas than when you’re walking down the road around town. I guess it’s because there’s less people about and you each want to make sure that the other party is OK because there’s not a lot of help around. You’ve just got to make sure you’re comfortable talking about these things during your journey. Otherwise your walk could be a long, quiet and one-sided one until you reach the end.
