Today's ODC challenge was not just a word or two but this quote: "A great wind is blowing and that gives you either imagination or a headache" quote by Catherine the Great
Self-reflection is a time to IMAGINE all sorts of things - some good, some bad. Either way, I usually end up with a HEADACHE!

Sometimes,
we feel the pull
a quiet ache to speak
with ourselves.
We reach inward,
fingers trembling with wonder,
trying to slip our hands
into the folds of our own soul,
to touch something true,
to find the voice beneath the noise.
But guess what
it’s only an attempt,
a whisper against the storm.
To truly reach that place,
we must walk a path
not paved in ease,
but in questions.
Not straight,
but spiraled,
winding through shadows and soft light.
It is a journey
not loud, but vast.
Not always kind,
but sometimes zen.
Where silence becomes a guide,
and stillness,
a key
I have been in a quiet, introspective mood today, after hearing some very sad news this morning.

A line is like a life, progressing from a beginning to an end. Intersecting lines are like intersecting lives.
"But, Rob, some of those lines have gaps..."
Aww, c'mon, why ya' gotta mess up my metaphor?
"I think it's a simile."
Don't be like that.
"Like what? Finish the thought and we might have another simile."

Ready to get lost? Can you hear the fire crackling? The cool summer evenings that hold a promise for warmth tomorrow but for the moment hold the chill of the air coming off the lake. The silence is deafening even as the fire hisses and pops. It's the kind of quiet where you suddenly find yourself in a trancelike state. Eyes forward, staring off into space when you realize you've been off in thought for a long time. Maybe then you realize just how long it's been since you could hear yourself think... And the smell. The fragrance of damp pine needles, rich soil, and wet air. Holding your hands over the warmth of flame you realize you did it again - lost yourself. For some people it can be daunting to face the silence. Facing the silence means facing the person you often misunderstand the most - yourself. You have to spend time with someone to truly know them. And how do you do that when your life is so full? It doesn't have to be a mountain trip, it doesn't have to be costly, extravagant or complicated. It just takes times. Time to think, to get lost, to find yourself. Your worth it!
