As the trail opened up on top of the ridge, I was surprised by the brightness of the sun. Wildflowers in the tall grass moved gently in the wind.
I marveled at my spirit being at rest once again, and I was lifted into a space…..I had always wanted to discover.

It’s funny my next blog (in a weeks time) is about walking on some hiking trails around my area.
Thanks for sharing. I miss the mountains out West I used to hike on with my boys when they were young.
Thank you James! I was born out west but my family moved east when I was very young. We are not far now from the Blue Ridge Mountains and we venture there sometimes. Peace and wonderful blessings to you.
Mountains are my happy place. Thank you for a lovely reminder. 🙂
