Unknown

College student on a flight. Me. Heading to the unknown. 

Meeting up with the rest of the team in Seattle. Then we fly together across the Pacific Ocean to Taiwan. There we’re scheduled to serve for ten weeks in various cities. 

Suddenly, people on the plane start exclaiming. Calling others to look out the windows. 

Clear, blue summer sky. 

And we’re flying over snow-topped Mt. Rainier. 

Magnificent.

Look up

Dawn. And I’m walking on a path interrupted by roots. Stumbling on acorns hidden beneath fallen leaves. 

The way feels uneven. 

Unpredictable. 

I can’t look up. In the grey. Before full light reveals.
