Where I go to recharge

Dornwood Park- Topeka Kansas

My church. It's a single track trail through the woods. My cathedral is the gorgeous fall sky supported by these talk oaks. The choir is the whispering of the leaves, the chirp of a bird and the rustling of the forest floor by the chattering squirrels. My communion is a protein bar and a sip of water as I rest near a gurgling creek. This is where I find peace, where I feel closest to God and where I can let down my guard and just be me. For a while I can just be the kid that climbs trees, the dreamer that sees the shapes in the clouds and a man that sits here humbled beneath the beauty that I am surrounded by . So if you ask if I go to church, I say yes.
