Beauty Along the Way
I walked amidst the red pine, cedar, and deciduous trees, and myriad herbs that seemed to line the roads on both sides. The road is a marvelous vein that slices through nature’s environment. Each morning I receive the nostril arousement from fragrant disbursements that those green companions share. I only wish that the world could be with me to experience it. You are lucky to catch it at the right hour, somewhere at dawn.
A cattle rancher from the area proposed to offer a ride. I declined for obvious reasons. He was inquisitive so I explained my pilgrimage purpose. His remark before he trailed off was, “Hope you find what you’re looking for.”
“Will do!” I said, while in my mind I was content to believe that I’m indeed finding it – Divinity and all that’s natural around me.
I met the Websters, a couple with this lovely home overlooking a valley with a lake. They tell me their son has made it big on a TV show called “Timber Kings” to do with log homes. Well, they have the ideal home themselves, which they proudly wanted me to view from the deck so I could capture the ultimate vista. This was a slight divergence from walking while at the same time the meeting of people is part and parcel of this walking mission.
May the Source be with you!
