Despair & Hope Are Travel Buddies! Part 1



Have you ever felt its shadow swoop over your head like an eclipse of the sun, sending a shudder through your bones? As kids we remember the first time we went down in the dark damp cellar without light to get mom some potatoes. We felt our heart pull us back like someone grabbing a knapsack. Instinctively, we felt the urge to run, retreat and return to the light.

In a moment of time during COVID-19 social distancing, after soaking in the tub of disastrous news of the world around me, I felt an eerie, evil presence of darkness, like a shadow of despair, death and loss. It came and went without conscious thought. ​
