My hike was so fulfilling. I got off the trail and just went with the flow, which path called to me. I didn't come out where I wanted to but was gratified by knowing exactly where I was. The trees, the sun through the tree branches was warm so I sat on a moss-covered log and prayed and cried for a while. During that time no one was walking nearby but as soon as I decided to move on then there were several people. Strange but peaceful, like nature wanted me to be alone during that time.

I really enjoy doing this. It is one small and very easy way I can make an impact. My two kids were also motivated to help and picked up three pieces each too.
