Back to "The Front"

There was this moment:  I'd had too much wine, I was exhausted from the climbing, and I just felt so alive, you know?  I just had one of those feelings where everything was in time and I couldn't break out of the rhythm, where everything had it's place and you're just floating through the moment.  Everything is woven together, everything fits.  And for a moment life makes sense.  

All I could do was be.  
There was no other option.

Then I fell asleep, and when I awoke, it was back to the front.

Don't you love those moments where everything makes sense? They don't happen very often, but when they do I am so grateful for them. It's like for a split second you don't have to worry because you can finally see your life coming together.

Bingo. That's why I love camping. It's the perfect environment for reflection, contemplation, and clarity.

Over a year's break and your back at it! Glad to see you're writing again. Keep it up...
