"It was okay to be perplexed, to be torn by issues, to look at the world and not feel inadequate because it would not sort itself out cleanly...I came to realize that I had my own convictions, and if, at times, they took me in circles, at least they expanded outward." -Ted Gup
This makes me more apt to embrace life's mysteries, take the cards I'm dealt, and try to play to the best of my ability. So, embrace the simple things that somehow make sense. Here is a picture and a poem of a simple joy in my life, the valley. Thanks Ted.
On the same day in March
I can wait at the bus stop in my sweatshirt with my hood down
I can bask in the sun reading my book, no need to worry about the wind today, so my pages lay flat
The sun glows over the valley, but the trees are still bare and the grass frosty
I hear the birds as I climb the stairs
Knowing there is potential for a beautiful day
