my journey

[tessa]

Echoes, your words brought tears to my eyes and a smile to my heart. Thank you so very much for being so encouraging and supportive. It means more than you can know. ~hugs~

What I am finding as I go on this journey is that there is no way to see around the upcoming turn, no way to know what to expect next. Sometimes what I encounter feels like a walk through a field of flowers, just so pretty and refreshing. Other times, it's a very dark place I find, one that pulls me in and down so far. Both places are important and incredibly special. Finding the balance between the two can seem like a hike up to the summit of the highest, tallest, most majestic mountain. But it's the knowing of what is waiting there at the peak that makes all of it worth the doing.

~re-reads that~ Wow. The blonde got a bit philosophical. Imagine that. Must be a slow celebrity-gossip day.

Along this journey, when you don't know what direction to go, sometimes it's best to just sit a while until someone comes along that can tell you which way to go. Because if you try to go off alone, getting lost is a good bet. And you might wind up somewhere really scary.

I hate those scary places.
