#anna ruby falls

Sometimes it rains for weeks on end. The sunrise is hidden by a thick blanket of gloomy gray. Everything is saturated with cold damp fog. Life starts to feel cold and damp like the fog. Motivation has run its course. Where is the sun? Where is my smile, my joy? My lack of happiness makes me more unhappy with myself. What is my problem? Another wave of rain. More gray. Colder, damper fog. Drip, drip, drip. Life is dripping by. Then a small break in the rain. A hike with my love to a waterfall. Nature healed me! Just like that, I’m better. In a moment of clarity I realize that the waterfall wouldn’t exist without the rain.
