The Never-Ending Ramblings...

Is It Really That Important?

I’m stuck. My barefoot is stuck in the mud. Ankle deep. Thick gooey, dark wet soft mud. I can’t take a step forward. I’ve tried, for several days but am immobile. So, I’m working my mental attitude yet again. Focusing on the bright sunshine overhead. It’s warmth covering my bare shoulders like a blanket on a cool windy day. My view is spectacular. Even if my goal is out of sight.. If I squint my eyes, twist up my nose, think with a concentrated effort, I can feel a glimpse of an outline I know is my goal.

But the birds are chirping. A small child calls out with laughter while her dog barks. Stop worrying about your immobility I say to myself.

I just don’t want to lose sight of my goal.
