Solvitur Ambulando (Latin), “it is solved by walking”
I came across this beautiful phrase and it stayed with me for some time. I was thinking about how we let go of things when we walk. We walk to solve problems, we walk when we need to find creative solutions, we walk off our emotions. Problems, it seems, are best encountered when we walk.
We walk away from difficulties, problem people, situations, and many more issues because we don’t want to face them. But, we can walk toward. When we deliberately walk toward something or someone, we are making the choice to accept what is. We are not avoiding unpleasantness, opening bills, reading emails, sidestepping awkward conversations and so forth.
It is difficult to walk toward things, I get that. We are all facing many challenges and different situations. It’s not easy to walk towards something that fills you with dread or fear. We run away from those things, as the adrenaline kicks in. But, in time, many of us have to face things. So, maybe walking is the solution. You choose in which direction you want to walk.
Take it slow, free your mind and allow those insights to come to you with solutions that may help you through.
I caught a snippet of “Miranda” last night. For those of you who don’t know, it’s a comical sitcom. She was visiting a school and she said “why are we told to walk not run”, she ran and promptly fell over 😉 (silly I know)!! It leads me to say, don’t run, walk.
May you walk your way through things, and come out the other side with knowledge and experience. May walking prove to be a useful resource when it comes to problem solving and coming up with creative ideas and strategies. But, more than anything may your walk be enlightening, enjoyable and bring you closer to your dreams.
Every time you walk, think of this “Solvitur Ambulando”
