Walking and Wisdom 🙏

It has become a fashion and obsession for people to wear a gadget that will take count of the number of steps one has walked during the day. This mortal prefers to wear it only during the night at home for reasons which only prisoners of matrimony will understand. A patient walked into my consultation room with an air of arrogance which even Neil Armstrong did not have when he walked the first few steps on the Moon. He told me “Do you know how many steps I have walked today?”. I being a person who knows nothing replied “I do not know.”.He told me “20, 223 steps ”.I raised my eyebrows and asked him “Outside or Inside.”He replied “In the park outside.”. I sarcastically replied “You would have reached the green meadows of Enlightenment if only you had walked inward.” He did not understand what I told him .I hope he understands my statement after reading this post.Let me take leave. I have to walk further inward and come up with a pearl of wisdom tomorrow.
