I went on an incredible new walk yesterday. There are certain footpaths around here that are rather inaccessible, involving slightly tricky access and it is these I am exceptionally drawn to so I can have a great explore.
Now, I had clambered through a lot of overgrowth to get to a small area of woods – this path had definitely not been used for a long time but when I got to the section I realised I was at a dead-end. No gates, lots of wired-off sections and enclosures so I was forced to come back the same way.
When I reached almost the beginning of the walk, I discovered an open gate which took me along the side of a cultivated field, I felt rather pleased. Despite the trek being a little arduous, I felt I had gone as far as I could go for the first adventure – and I had the place entirely to myself, just call me frontier men.
There are certain things you just need to say yes or no to. It’s called being decisive. When I realised I had to walk back, I can’t lie, I did feel the slight pang of defeat but that’s just the way it goes sometimes.
Make the decision, do it and see what comes of it. You’ll be glad you did and you’ll DO what most just talk about.
