It’s better to walk about thinking than think about walking

Logbook note on walking and philosophy – trying to figure out connections between thinking and walking – here is one thought

Walk to think

Text and drawing by Frits Ahlefeldt, Hiking.org

How to think is one of the classic questions in philosophy – And most of the great thinkers were not in doubt.  Thinking is better on foot – and it is much better to walk about thinking than to think about walking. That is one thing I got out of all the books I’ve been reading, by my desk, about walking lately
