A Walk in the Park
Hi everyone,
Every morning, Mon to Fri, I would go to nearby park for my morning walk. It is my daily exercise. Today, I took a few photos of it and would like to share the beautiful scenery with you.
The sun has risen, and like clockwork, a group of seniors are doing their exercises. You can't miss them. They play a loud instructional audio that guides them step by step on the type of exercises to do.
In the photo above, you can see a workout area with equipment for those who like to do strength building. The government housing is in the background. Tall and lush trees are everywhere.
Walkers and joggers take this path. It goes around the park. One complete circuit is 400 meters. Here, shown in the above photo, is the start point. Again, you see the magnificent tall trees. With the person walking, you can see how big the trees are.
Further down the path, there more beautiful trees. On the ground, along the path, cranium lilies often bloom with lovely white flowers. Seats and shelters pepper the park, for people to rest.
On the left of this photo, there is a children's playground. It is early morning and the children have gone to school. They are usually at the playground in the evening, after school.
Slight elevated area in the park. There is a small group of people who do their exercises there. As I walk past, I always hear them chatting loudly. 😄
More tall trees that make the morning walks such a pleasure. All the fresh morning oxygen from the trees and plants is exhilarating!
You can see the government housing in the background of the photo. Singapore is a small island, So, land is sparse. As such, it is common to see these flats close to amenities like the mall, hospitals, or a park.
Walking is Good for Health
When I was younger, I used to jog and do workouts. Then work took over and I became unhealthy.
When I was recuperating in the hospital, a physiotherapist helped me to get stronger again. I promised her that I would start exercising again. And walking in the park was the first fulfilment of that promise.
In time, I hope to do Qigong and yoga again (used to do it when younger).
Are you taking good care of your health? What exercise are you doing daily?
I wish you good health, wealth, and success!

Hi there, Tim.
Thank you for sharing your walk in the park, The trees and scenery are very beautiful. A nice way to get your morning walk.
I try to get 30 minutes at least 3 days a week of moderate exercise. Treadmill, swimming, and strength training. I try to mix it up so as to not get bored. I have done power walking in the past and I am planning to take a walk in the park soon like I am used to. However, the park is not close by.
Rachele
p.s You live in a very health-friendly community. Very nice.
I get my wife to push me around the park. It’s very relaxing…but I do have to dress the part..lol
Hi Rachele,
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed the scenery.
Yes, it is a nice small park. Ideal for walks.
Wow! You do many good exercises. That's fantastic! Very healthy!
Tim
That's ok, Rachele. A little at a time. Do not feel any pressure. After cancer, I have learned to be gentle with myself. Please be gentle with yourself too, my friend.
Tim
being amongst nature is so good for the soul. Thank you for giving us a glimpse into you day Tim.

You're welcome, Marijana.
Glad you enjoyed the scenery.
Yes, it is good to be amongst nature.
Tim
Yes, walking is very healthy. Since I started these projects I’ve slowed down from about 20,000 steps a day to around 12 to 15,000. It’s still healthy, but I’m exercising my mind as much as I’m exercising my body.
Yes I ride my exercise bicycle and use my weights just about everyday. Have a good one.

It was great to see and hear about Singapore from you. It looks and sounds better than I expected. And, I wish I was as consistent as you with taking walks. Its winter here and getting colder so I resort to indoor astride jumping, push-ups against the wall, and learning to juggle.
As I age I get more shaky and I am looking for ways to slow it down. Any suggestions?
Glad you enjoyed the scenery, Roger. 😊
It is nice walking in nature. At least you are still doing exercises indoors during winter. 👍
I'm also getting older, Roger. Plus I just recovered from cancer. So, my body is still weak from battling cancer.
All I am saying is that I understand you concern. My suggestion would be to be gentle with yourself. Do what you can. Remember - strength builds in increments.
Tim
Thanks! Will do.
