Up in the high rise, overlooking a great river and surrounded by one of America’s famed cities. Our sliding door opens us to the ocean breeze and the healthy aroma of inland waterways, living the high life, many stories above the fray. My lover sleeps. My mind drifts away to the mountains. I flew away yesterday. I am not a big fan of flying but do like aspects of it, two or worth mentioning. One is the idea of going to or coming back from an adventure and two, which prompted this short blog, is the ability to see things from above. Above is a great perspective, you see everything. Everything is mostly wide open empty spaces, forests, rivers, mountains, farms, lakes, and oceans. The earth is mainly empty wilderness, but from above you miss the people. I imagine that is one of the reasons God sent Christ; he missed his people. That is always meaningful to me, God feeling so much like I feel, loving the wilderness but wanting to share in it with those I love.
