FIELD NOTE 05The path that’s ours.
I noticed this tree the other day.
Its branches curved and changed direction sharply. One almost spiraled upward.
Its shape caught my attention.
It reminded me of my own path. There have been do-overs and unexpected turns. Times when I couldn’t see where I was headed. And the life I have now is not the one I once set out to build and rebuild.
I can see now that the path I originally set out on wasn’t healthy for me.
Some trees take a more direct path. Others twist and turn, creating their shape as they go.
Maybe the path isn’t meant to be perfect.
It’s meant to be ours.
