Four steps

Four steps.

Four steps may not seem like much.

True, they will not get me very far.

In my office, four steps will not get me from my chair to my office door.

Four steps during a run do not count for much.

But four steps taken by my Dad, now that's something.

Yes, he had help.

Yes, he was using a hemi-walker.

Yes, yes, yes.

But four steps.

Taken by a man who survived a devastating non-surviveable stroke.

Taken by a man who had been so depressed lately he would barely speak.

Taken by a man who was told he would never walk again.

Four giant significant monumental steps.
