View from the Lion’s Bridge at the Noland Trail
I missed the field trip with class to the Noland Trail because I had a doctor's appointment. I procrastinated on completing this assignment because I had to make a special trip after classes ended. At first I was aggravated that I had to take time away from my children after the semester had ended. Because I work and go to school fulltime I cherish the extra time I get to spend with them before the next semester starts. When I first arrived at the Noland Trail I couldn’t think of anything to write because it was not where I wanted to be. I sat there for over an hour and could come up with nothing to put on paper. All I could think about is time and how I wish I had more of it. After a while I realized my attitude towards this assignment was preventing me from completing it. It wasn’t until I stopped resisting and approached it with an open mind that I was able to understand what I was supposed to take away from this natural setting. It is at this point that the words began to flow from my thoughts effortlessly. While driving home from the Lion’s Bridge I felt a sense of relief and realized that I enjoyed spending time by myself. I felt refreshed and more adapt to handle the things that go along with everyday life :)
