A Rough Path

Though the path is rough A rocky mountain landscape Trudge through it wisely You will find in your heart, peace When at the top, victory Russell Sivey

When we lived in Colorado Springs we climbed half way up Pikes Peak on several weekends. The path was steep, but as you say, "You will find in your heart, peace." Love, daver

point of focus is the answer, cast the worries all aside, mind likes to be sidetracked, tortured brain the path 2 ride, disconnecting the tortured side... re: 'A Rough Path' Russell Sivey... Don
