Here I am, unable to know where to start, wishing I had persevered and blogged along the way on the road trip from Alaska to New Mexico from Oct. 1 to Nov.5. Do I go back and start posting pictures of all we saw? Do I tell you all the places of wonder and again, awe? I only know I kept wanting to break into "America the Beautiful." I want to write about are the moments of insight, the things that are still rumbling around in my brain, still mumbling to be said. But okay, I have to share a few photos of the wildlife right alongside the road as we drove through Canada on the Alcan. It was like being in a wildlife park. How fortunate we are to still be able to see bears and bison, elk and sheep, caribou and moose. They are so completely themselves without pretense. I often watch them and watch them and watch them just to learn how to become like them...at home in the wild world, sure of daily purpose, moving with fluid beauty and present to the moment--always aware of danger but not daunted in living out their lives.
I once watched a mother moose with a calf at the edge of a lake, drinking. What remained with me is how unhurried and intentionally she moved, how she considered the next step, how she waited until all seemed right before moving back into the brush. The image comes back to me when I notice I'm rushing about, tense inside, my mind cluttered. Before leaving, she turned and looked straight at me for a while, considering me as I considered her. I imagined she sighed, hoping as all mothers do, that we learn our lessons but not with too much pain.
