Let it rain
I LOVE this picture, it reminds me of myself; perched precariously over a chasm. However high I climb, however secure I am - I am always aware of the valley from which I climbed and the feeling of isolation in the dark places I have seen.
Sometimes the valley below me serves only to remind me of how far I have come.
Sometimes I lose my footing and feel I might just slip back into that deep, black abyss.
Other times it tempts me to jump off my log and dive back into the chaos, the drama - the extreme.
Ever real, ever present.
This may be a darker post than usual; the picture isn't the jumping and happy lady with a scarf on a beach - but in it I do also see beauty, hope and control.... After all, at least I am on a log and not in the valley!
How does this picture make you feel?

Absolutely, what interesting and unique things we all see in the same picture
Thank you so much for sharing what you see.
It is hard to take credit for our achievements sometimes, but a quote I like to try and remember is: 'My failures are no more real than my achievements' - even though I often spend a lot more time beating myself up for the failures than I do acknowledging my achievements. This quote serves to remind me to change this attitude when I see it happening.
