One year ago Blissful Hiker set her feet on the Arizona Trail and planned to return to walk the final 100 miles, but an injury interrupted the trip.
 
In this episode:

1. This time of year is called "Lent" and is all about waiting and preparing, as well as contemplating the brevity of our lives.
2. An injury is like that, a close up look at vulnerability. Learning to manage the frustration teaches us how to embrace our lives. 
3. A long walk – and the weak place of injury – helps bring the hiker closer to the spirit, letting go of control and worry and trusting in the "peace that transcends all understanding."

MUSIC: Poema del Pastor Coya by Angel Lasala  and Milongs sin palabras by Astor Pizzolla as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, piano
