Patience, faith, healing–a great combination for positive outcome! And it has worked its magic for me, once more.

A little after seven this morning, I shoulder my pack, cross the French Broad River–and climb that mountain.
I’m confident, strong, and more determined than ever to complete this odyssey…


Maybe that’s why life is so precious.
No rewind or fast forward…
just patience and faith.
