Sunset Hike on Mt. Si

I decided halfway through the day that I wanted to see the sunset from Mount Si. As being in my nature I still decided to go when nobody wanted to come with.

I thought I would post some of the photos from the hike. They are quite wonderful

Dissapearing

My little cousin Mikayla was in town yesterday. It was absolutely without a doubt a beautiful day. We went to greenlake and walked around a bit, sat on a bench and just chatted for a couple hours.

She asked me a interesting question during that time, "would you rather be able to fly or become invisible?"

I quickly replied that I would want to fly - without a second thought I passed the conversation off as another reason why I love her.

I was thinking about that question last night, as I layed on my bed getting ready for sleep. Above my bed is a world map, its filled with tacks, each one marking a place I want...will visit next year.

What's it look like to disappear? Try leaving to travel the world for a few years. Am I discontent with my life? Am I trying to escape something? Am I skipping out on responsibility, and I tucking tail and running. Am I being a terrible friend/son/brother? These questions ran through my head last night, and in deed today.

No

Sometimes you have to leave to gain perspective. I intend to leave with the intention of coming back, that must say something.

I try to disappear. Yes. But I do it for the sake of what my family, my friends, my life needs - an adventure to invigorate my soul, my faith, my belief that the Lord has so much more for me. Life abundant.

After all if you can't see me, that's when you dream, you imagine, you pray, you believe in the same adventure.
