Trying like hell to keep my head above water...I headed down this path to the water.
It is chilly today...43° at the present moment.
As I walked down the path...I was struck by how much it felt similar to where I find myself currently emotionally and spiritually.
No blooms on the trees. Broken limbs. Trees down. Leaves scattered. Dirty. Dark. Dreary.
The sun would peak down every little bit. Giving a small glimmer of light among the trees. But not for long.
I could only go so far since the trail ended and was full of mud. I could continue. Get dirty. Get stuck.
I turned around. And went another direction. Only to find myself in the same predicament.
At which point I turned around and came back to my car.
As I looked at the few pics I took on my phone I was struck by how they didn't represent fully what my eyes seen.
The photo below portrays a little light. Blue sky and lake in the distance. It looks peaceful and full of grace. There was a level of peace as I listened to the birds chirping.
A beautiful mess.
It is all in the eye of the beholder.
It is all in the eye of the beholder.
