When the fog is so thick
you can’t see round the bend,
do you take a chance
or allow a dead end?
Our minds can get foggy too,
and we don’t see as clearly as we usually do.
The intriguing thing, though,
is if we take a slow go
with thoughtful steps in confident faith,
we might be surprised at what awaits.
Go forward my friend
around the bend.
The further you go,
the clearer you’ll grow.
Cherish all the moments.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
