Conversing with a half dozen people is more wearing
Than biking 20 km in traffic
Participating in a worship service is more demanding
Than biking 30 km dodging rain showers
Walking into a store for a quick errand can be more frustrating
Than biking 40 km into a head wind
Listening to live music for half an hour requires more recuperation
Than biking 50 km through hilly country side
Driving for 4 hours will affect my balance more
Than biking for 60 km on a chilly day
Some activities have a way of causing neuro fatigue
While cycling rejuvenates the whole person
The physical exertion
The rhythmic movement
The outdoor ambience
Nature’s symphony;
The wind in the trees,
The call of the cardinal
The chirping of crickets
Sounds that respond to each other
Sounds that sidle up to you
Sounds that heal,
Sounds that sooth the senses
Sounds that lift one’s spirits
Being neurologically atypical, things don’t add up in a way that makes sense to others. While I am able to do certain activities with ease and experience satisfaction, there are plenty of activities that leave me challenged.
