The journey



I snapped this while driving on a deserted road in the adirondacks this past week.  (Don't try this at home, folks).  I had journeyed quite a distance already that day, and had still quite the journey ahead of me.  I wasn't really anxious about it though.  I was feeling at peace and as relaxed as possible given that I had already traveled 300 miles and had about that much more ahead of me.  I looked around me at the beautiful scenery and I really enjoyed the ride.  I really enjoyed the journey and was less concerned about when and where and how the journey would end.

I wish I could be this way about life's journey, less anxious about what tomorrow will bring, and more able to just enjoy today.

"It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end."
~ Ernest Hemingway
