As you descend into high sweet grass and dip into the warm water it’s gets cooler as you go deeper. The fog is rolling thick upon the reeds. You see through glimpses to the other side, a shoreline. It seems possible. Wait up upon the crest of the hill is a wild animal just now moving over the edge. It changes shape as it gets closer and then goes farther away. It looks like a coyote but maybe it’s a large dog. Wait is there someone with it, leading it this way? The blue is so intense and then all of a sudden it is grey and foggy again.

What once was foggy is not so, once you look closely. Maybe it was always clear we just would like to see what we want in others, i have heard it said people will show you who they are if you listen.

I have listened and I have looked, it’s the best I have to work with to comprehend at present.

These signs help guide and inform me.

Yet still my footing is unsteady as I start to rise from the water. Is someone waiting on the ridge or are they just passing by?
