Shore View

The island of Sicily teaches many secrets and truths. Here's one.



No matter what anyone tells you, life can go in many directions. There is no one way sign.



No matter how hopeless it feels, we're still making wishes. And when one light flickers out(I accidentally turned off someone's prayer light while trying to ignite my own! Egads.), three more flicker on.



It's okay to walk on. Don't be frightened of abandoned suitcases. They're rarely ever bombs.



The water is never as calm as it appears.



And in the struggle between the rock and the river, the river wins as it carves out channels and forges a path where there was none before.



And in the end, all that matters are the many friends who held your hand along the way.
