Post 40: Frustration

MAY
This day, I was feeling very down. Frustrated with everything and everyone, tired but restless, angry, and feeling very stuck. I needed to go somewhere. My short-term solution was to take a long day on the mountain. Walking there, I came across this blue-speckle cobbled path. I felt the yellow dandelions and deep green grass looked rather lovely in contrast, so I took a picture. Just this simple beauty made me feel a little better. I walked to Beaver Lake, wrote some poems (not so angsty as you might expect), some letters, then walked to the lookout. I found a place near a stream to rest against a tree and read some Beat poetry. This day helped a little, though I still needed to get away.
