Fork in the Road
This morning's sunrise finds me atop a little hill in the road...I can clearly see the fork in the road ahead...the main road is a well paved 4 lane highway that curves gently off towards the rising sun; the other tine of the fork however appears to be a 2 lane country road, twisting and winding its way towards the horizon. Both roads have their advantages...both roads appeal to me - I'm just not sure which one to follow.I know that I would like to take the country road...enjoy the time that I get to spend among the beautiful countryside...just seeing where the road will lead, but at the same time the lure of the highway and the passing lane is a siren who's song is difficult to ignore. Zipping down the highway doing 125 with my hair on fire may just be what I need right now, but that little country road has an allure that calls to me with a voice that is getting stronger by the moment, making me want to slow down and see what happens.
Since that fork is looming ahead and I need to decide which way to go...I'm going to set up the hammock between two big old shade trees, right here on this hill-top, and just weigh my options for a bit. The view from here is magnificent...I hope your own view is too.
Have a great weekend everyone.
