A Reason to Return

Picture
One year ago today I spent a chilly, rainy, mist-soaked day hiking The Fairy Pools in Glen Brittle on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. No filters are needed for this otherworldly landscape. Often, when you dream of being in a place for so long, it's to be expected that it will disappoint you once you actually arrive. Mismatched dreams and realities can break your heart a little, especially when they happen over and over again.

The Fairy Pools were better than I could have imagined. The keen saturated green of the grasses, hard to capture on film; the less definable fog over the distant peaks beckoning me to keep climbing into the clouds, resisting the permanence of a photograph; the icy cold white foam gush of the pools themselves and how sacred it felt to plunge my hands into the water and touch my freezing fingers to my face, a baptism of my own making in the Highlands.

The skirt I wore on this hike got soaked with Scottish rain this day, and I still relish in this knowledge of the extraordinary moments woven into the fabric whenever I have worn it since. My curls matted to my head under the alpaca hat I had purchased on the island just that morning, perpetually wet with the mist that permeated every molecule of that early July afternoon. I was crestfallen to realize that we would not have time to climb to the horizon before our driver arrived at the car park to take us back to our inn to dry off, warm up, and eat dinner. So, we said that this finite time at the Pools was all the reason to come back: to leave something undiscovered for next time.

I'm still dreaming about making it to that horizon, my body flexing with the memory of making my way over that ancient, rugged terrain.

Of being under that big sky that stayed light so long that it didn't surrender to show its stars until well past midnight.

​Of letting that Highland rain once again soak my skin, reminding me that just when there feels like there is nothing new to knock you back and astound you, a mountain rises up from nowhere and dares you to ascend to something absolutely astonishing.
​
Wishing you all a reason to return to a place that has held your heart in its hands. May you leave something undiscovered for next time.

LOST CRYPTO RECOVERY!

I read so many stories about bitcoin loss to scams. I will like to start by saying the agencies responsible for bitcoin security has really done nothing to help locate stolen or lost coins. In my situation my MacBook was hacked by someone that had access to my emails, i immediately contacted blockchain and they only wasted my time, after which i worked towards getting help else where, i was referred to consult a bitcoin expert who helped track and retrieved my 3.3 btc, for an agreed fee. I was more than grateful and willing to pay more after the job was done. Thankful i didn't fall victim and would like to recommend ( MORRIS GRAY 830 @ G maiL . COM!!

Everything I’m going to suggest for you is what I’ve seen breathe new life into broken marriages for thousands of women in your distressing situation—and what I did to revitalize my own broken marriage. I was heart broken when my husband left me and moved to California to be with another woman. I felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. I tried to be strong just for the kids but I could not control the pains that tormented my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows and pains because I was really in love with my husband. I have tried many options but he did not come back, until i met a friend that directed me to Dr. Excellent a spell caster, who helped me to bring back my husband after 11hours. Me and my husband are living happily together again, This man is powerful, Contact Dr. Excellent for any kind of spiritual problems or any kind of spell or relationship problems he is capable of making things right for you with no side effect. Here his contact. Call/WhatsApp him at: +2348084273514 "Or email him at: [email protected] , His website:https://lovespellonline.godaddysites.com
