Reflections

Backpacking in the Adirondack Mountains

What do you think of when you think of reflections? I think of being still long enough to see, which is often easier said than done. Reflections remind me that we, like nature, are beautiful, but not only when things are smooth and pristine. We are beautiful when the waters are rough too. We are beautiful when the depths of us churn up and go muddy and get hard to see through. We are beautiful when the storms rage on us. Like the lakes and oceans, we are complex, with so much going on in the ecosystem of our hearts and minds. It's magnificent really, how complex we are. How courageous we are to keep moving, keep trying, keep working, keep growing, keep learning, keep loving, keep being. How courageous, and beautiful, we are each day. More than we realize.
