Darkness

I remember visiting Yellowstone National Park.  The absolute darkness of night allowed for an incredible view of the heavens and the Milky Way.  

I also vividly remember being terrified as a moose was bugling nearby (way TOO nearby). 

Last week on the property I saw a different kind of darkness.  The term pitch black definitely applied.  

Pulling up to open the gate without a key.  Waiting for someone to show up to let me in.  Darkness.  Void of light.  Void of stars. 

Darkness

What a season of darkness we have been collectively walking.  Pandemic, environmental disasters, among all the political unrest, Mistrust and a healthy dose of narcissism to boot.

I keep wondering, where is the hero that can save us from this darkness? How can I save myself from this craziness. 

I was reminded this morning of a wise quote from Wonder Woman…”She needed a hero, so she became one”.
