Seeking Solace

 

solitude and silencetimothy app trail2 - Copy

strain to see

struggle to secure

solace,

seeking

sagacity that will satisfy

secede from situation

sabbatical season

Wow...I had to look up sagacity, but that is what I need right now! Thank you!! Beautiful picture...where on the Appalachian Trail? How many miles did your son hike?

Mary, He hiked the southernmost end. They started in George and hiked about 65 miles over 4 days. Thanks for stopping by!

This seems like a tongue twister to me, Nancy! :) But a beautiful one. I'm thinking about solace but I haven't found my RAP yet. Thanks for sharing yours. I missed you while on vacation last week. Trying to catch up!

The words and picture together are palpable.

Thank you.

I loved the "s" sounds, in themselves a solace. :)

So sorry I missed this! Forgive.
