Hello Friends near and far,
It is with great warmth that I am writing to you,
I feel called to offer my walking abilities to the Anthroposophical Prison Outreach (APO) for many reasons.
Every time I read the (APO) newsletter I am moved by the depth, honesty and striving shared by the individuals that are effected by the work of the APO program. I feel a deep connection to this work, what it shares with these individuals, and also to all of humanity in its collective striving. I feel we all have to meet this in ourselves, the need to overcome, and to transform out of our own choice and freedom.
My offering is one of overcoming: a two mile walk will be the longest I have walked alone in almost 2 years. It has been a personal goal of mine this year to walk to my neighborhood playground and back entirely by myself. After undergoing a transformative journey in healing where my physical strength and mobility have changed, I have slowly regained my ability and confidence to walk. Recently, I have been challenging myself to go for further distances without a guide. Currently, I am able to go for a 10 block walk with my family. For me, this walk will be about meeting my own fear around not being able to walk alone. I will walk on behalf of all of us who are having to meet fear and untruths -- whatever they may be -- and I offer my walk as a symbol of courage to all of those individuals that are seeking into the unknown.
Please support me in my small and mighty endeavor.
Love,
Mayra
