To Walk Across Canada
To walk across Canada,
you do not need a university education,
you do not need a lot of money,
you do not need anyone’s permission,
you do not need a detailed plan,
you do not need to be an athlete,
you do not need fancy gadgets or equipment,
you do not need to announce it to the world,
you do not need a lot of wisdom,
you do not need experience,
you do not need a lot of worldly skills,
you do not need pom poms or cheerleaders.
You just need two things:
tenacity,
and time.
