Watermark

There is something about music that transports me to another time: to a time past, to a time wished upon, or to a time imagined.  This song transports me to a time when I was searching.  Walking, hiking through a familiar path, but lost and trying to find a stable ground.  It reminds of a time I sat for hours on a bench that was awkwardly planted on the edge of a steep hill, slightly hidden away from the pathways.  Afraid of heights, it took awhile to convince myself to look down below.  But sitting on that bench, struggling with my fears, I felt free.  To search.  To explore.  And to let go.
