wind waves

So this weekend we went camping. first, Don and me and the twins (6) and Monique. it didn't start off good - we drove 3 hours (it seemed forever) and when we got there, it was freezing . . in fact, it started snowing (for about 2 minutes). Stayed cold all night.

At night, the wind came - it came in waves . . .it would blow very hard and then calm down and then start up again. You could hear it coming - starting far away in the trees and finally reaching you and then on to the beyond, still making noises in the trees . . .

Life is like that (a revelation from Don). We are hit by waves of winds - they make a lot of noise, put anxiety in our lives, and then move on. When we start feeling comfortable, another one comes. Sometimes they do damage (knocking over camp stoves) and sometimes they just make noise. . .

we just have to hold firm during the waves of wind.
