Doing Something Hard

journal· thinking

11 Apr

I'm doing something hard. Sure, that's subjective, "hard" can be many things and I have the recent perspective of knowing a young man who became paralyzed from the neck down after falling from his mountain bike.

We join our work to Heaven's gift,Our hope to what is left,That field and woods at last agreeIn ... Read More about the clearing rests
