The first time I went to
the Adirondacks, specifically to Osgood Pond, I felt that I had always been there,
that it had just taken years for my body to catch up. But even then, I wasn’t
sure I could live there full-time. There is a quiet there that is both
embraceable and intimidating. The aloneness almost
pushes into loneliness. So far I stay in love. But I’d be scared to try always.
Beautifully expressed. You've captured remoteness perfectly.
ReplyDeleteWow. Very well expressed. I am not sure I have ever been anywhere that remote.
