Oops—wrong road

Have you ever had this experience?

 

You are hiking on a path you have never explored before and you are no longer sure you are following the right signs. Yet there is power in the forward progress so you keep going-resolutely- and the further you go the more you realize you are no longer so comfortable with your surroundings.

It is a little too quiet, you stretch the definition of a “path” to include space between two overgrown roots…and hey, you are an adventurer; the journey is the reward, right? But you are also quite alone.

So you turn back. There is a sense of defeat yet after some time, as fellow hikers come into view you realize how much you have missed the camaraderie and the relief that comes with receiving help.

You are part of a community of hikers. 

What is your hike about?
