It's so simple. But true. Every step counts. Every breath too. We may not remember each and every one, most assuredly it's not in our consciousness, many steps and breaths forgotten, not considered important, so like the constant lapping of waves, or the blowing of the tree branches. Moment to moment to moment.
Still, every step is etched in our bodies, every breath too. Every one counts. The body knows, the body remembers, the body holds this knowledge, like a secret, a deep secret that will be revealed when it's time to be revealed.
