if i walked through the gate,
would i find the quiet place?
would i find the place where all things make sense?
the place where i could understand why things are not always the way i want them to be,
but the place of resolution that all things are as they are?
and if i didn't walk through that gate,
would it be okay if those answers were not there for me?

i don't know if i can walk through that gate,
and
i don't know if i can't.

This is a beautiful photograph Dawn.
The softness is wonderful.

I think I always say the same thing when I'm here...that this is so, so beautiful. But it is. Beautiful. As are you.

Is it maybe a question of staying on the safe side or not?
In the end the daring to walk through that gate might not give the answers one wants to hear but it is so fulfilling to say to one self 'I did it!' ;)

Open gates give us so many questions of what's beyond them. Beautifully said!
