Preacher’s Rock

This picture was taken from atop Preacher’s Rock in Dahlonega, Georgia. My son, Bryan, dabbles in photography & this was a moment where he was in the right spot at the right time to capture the beautiful colors of this sunset.

There is a calm & peaceful feeling as you look across the mountains toward the sunset. The mountains also give off the appearance of being on a ship in the ocean & looking out towards the rise & fall of the waves.

Our lives are like this picture. At different times of the day, the view from the same spot will look different. Some days the view may be foggy & you can’t see as far; other days, it could be rainy & windy, making the spot on the mountain a little dangerous, but if you wait long enough, the joie de vivre as the French would say will reappear. This is when you realize that our view of all things is temporary. Eventually, the fog lifts, the rain & wind go away & before you is the resplendent beauty that was there all along.
