About Melinda J. Johnson
'Above all do not lose your desire to walk. Every day I walk myself into a state of wellbeing and walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill... if one keeps on walking everything will be all right.' - Soren Kierkegaard, 19th Century Danish philosopher and theologian
