Seeking Meaning in the Mundane and Adventure in the Adversity
In November of 1805, Meriweather Lewis and William Clark found themselves cornered by bad weather in a tiny nook at the Ocean End of the Columbia River, only miles from their destination. Their 'dismal nitch' was the last stop before making history. Nearly two and a quarter centuries later, you can find us at the other end of the Mighty Columbia, sheltered from the storm and planning our own emergence in to legend. Welcome to Northeastern Washington and the Dismal Nitch.
I read somewhere that intimacy is directly proportional to the willingness of two people to be hurt by one another. I would add that it is directly proportional to the unwillingness of two people to inflict hurt on one another.
Having borne the hurt and survived, I can attest.
Maybe love is knowing there is darkness and choosing to stay in the haunted room and fight the ghosts with someone.
Maybe love isn’t.
