Fog comes in,
creeping.
Blocking our view.
I wrote those words when I was ten years old. Since then it has been published in various publications, from anthologies to legal journals. In reflecting about the year that draws to a close, and the one that is to begin; one can’t help but reflect, rewind if you will.
When I think of the fog that creeps in, eventually blocking our view. I think of the slow process it involves before engulfing us in a cloud inpenetrable by our eyes. Suddenly we can’t see what’s in front of us, or behind us. We can’t recognize in which direction we need to go.
How true this is in the reality of life. Our biggest obstacles creep into our lives ever so slowly, unrecognizable, undetectable, under the radar; until it is too late to see passed it. All we can do is wait for it to pass over, like fog, creeping back out or simply disappearing into thin air just as swiftly as it appeared.
