    At six thirty, I walk to the park. About twenty people come. Most of them are older, but some children come in summer.

    Someone turns on a radio. We follow the music and the voice. We stretch our arms, bend, and jump. It takes about ten minutes.

    After the exercise, we chat. We talk about the weather, our gardens, and our grandchildren. If someone doesn't come, we check on them.

    It is only ten minutes, but it keeps my body healthy and my heart happy. I am never lonely in the morning. Thank you for listening.
