Today is a day to walk out of the shadows and enjoy the sun...

 Like many others I suppose I had managed to convince myself that I liked it in back there in the shadows. I had been there for a long time and there can be comfort in the familiar. Out here in the sun everyone can see me and I am used to having places to hide when avoiding standing in my power. I have some new items in my backpack now and if I start to feel overwhelmed by the openness and vastness of the landscape I can sit down out here in the sun and pull one or two out. The air is so beautiful and crisp out here and I feel that soon I will be joined by some fellow travelers.
