This Winding Path

Walking upon this winding path the stones press sharply into ones feet. The journey seems difficult and painful at times, though still uphill and tiresome this path may be, it is a place where beauty and peace can still be found, but only if one takes the time to pause, to take it all in. Only then will one hear the birds in the trees, feel the cool breeze on your face and smell the sweet scent of rain as it lingers on the air. So is this Journey we call Life.
