Reflections on Fog


Fog

Many times people talk about the “fog of confusion” and that can be true.
However, today, it seemed to me that fog became clarity.
When the skies are clear, and the sun is out, I’m focused on the next mile…
My destination…
Or looking around at other things…
Not necessarily present in the moment.

When it’s foggy, I’m focused on the now.
Paying attention to what is in my immediate view…
What do I need to watch out for?
Are there dangers I cannot see?
Is there beauty that normally would be lost in the sunshine?

Metaphor for life – sometimes it’s good to be in the fog.
