Reason I Love NYC #5,677,862: Because I Can Commute Through Central Park

This is what my path to work with the brilliant and wonderful Karen Colligan looked like this morning. Usually, my commute is about eight steps from my bedroom to my living room.

On some days, though, because I live in the greatest city in the world, I can get to where I am going by walking through Central Park.

When I can do this — when my route to wherever is directly through the park — my heart swells with joy and happiness the whole way. How lucky I am.
