Sometimes when it is easiest to throw fiery curses at the world and dwell in the pit of misery, whatever cosmic force that binds us redeems life with something glorious. Whether it is fate or God, some power still smiles on our minuscule endeavors.
The weather today was absurd. I know I have reached a point of simplicity when the weather is the greatest influence on my day. This morning began with fiery sleet that subsided to incessant rain. Climbing Bald Mountain under the assault of rain only tempered my mind for the glorious summit. As I reached the top the clouds dissipated and the horizon reveals its infinite stretch, unfurling into misty oblivion. Hopefully tomorrow I can reach Erwin, Tennessee and secure some relaxation time. I need it.
