It's been several years, but tonight I decided to go for a long walk in the Fens at night. The first and last 15 minutes of the walk are along lit streets. But the 90 minutes in-between is out in the Fens, with no lights. I don't use a torch, as I like to navigate in the darkness. The moon wasn't out either.
There's something deeply grounding about walking down rough gravel droves, and old, delapidated concrete and mud tracks in the middle of nowhere. Along with navigating wild, overgrown byways in the Fens.
That even in the darkest of times - trust your footing, and listen to your gut; you will make your way through, and eventually you'll be led back to the light.
Truth be told, things have been a lot brighter in recent weeks. Although today I closed a door to the past; I've had to say goodbye to someone very dear to me for the forseeable future. I know this will take years; but the time and energy I was dedicating was too much. A lot of healing and growth needs to take place.
The right person, at the wrong time. I trust my gut in what the future holds for us. But I know that is many years away from now. The reality of that old saying has made the last 2 years very painful:
“If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours. If not, it was never meant to be.”
