Take a walk with me as I explore the trails of the Virginia and North Carolina border. We'll wonder at fallen trees and still canals, empty pine cones and blooming flowers, searching honeybees and jumping spiders, wandering roots and sharp thorns, twisting vines and drifting clouds. Enjoy thirty-nine photos that I took while out exploring the nearby woods, and consider what is most important in life.

An unvisited flower reminds me that there is potential in all of us. Maybe right now, as I just passed this way, there is nothing amazing or awe-inspiring happening. But this flower is ready for her moment, prepared, stocked up and supplied for that moment when a hungry insect smells her scent and stops by for a visit. I need to be ready for my moment.

A blocked river reminds me that bad things happen to good people. It isn't personal. It just is. That's the way life is. No one is targeting me or trying to make my life more miserable than theirs. Trees will fall and block my path because trees fall. What I do about it is up to me. Whine, or find a way around the obstruction. It's my choice.

An empty bridge reminds me that we are not what we aren't doing. We are what we do. Our greatest inventions sit idle for the majority of their existence, but that doesn't detract from their importance in a time of need. So what if I'm not a genius! So what if I'm not rich! So what if I'm not a celebrity! When I smile...I am me, and that is awesome.
