Hike in the woods

My mind hasn't been at ease. Beautiful flowers, blooming fruit trees, sunny warm days, are a blessing but dealing with a death in the family has sent me into despair. When I'm upset, I have a habit of wandering off on a hike in the woods. I hiked up the hill behind my house, along a path and then straight up to the top where boulders rest and shift over the years. Sometimes this is where I'd go if I really needed to get away, because it felt like I needed to.
