the first time I hiked through the forest at night I was frightened And then, I just decided i could not remain scared I trusted the bark was bark and if I stretched my hands out  I could touch the solidness of a tree and I trusted that the ground was ground firm beneath my feet that it would support me and not suddenly give way opening like a trap door I trusted that my ears would hear I trusted so now I must trust that the heart can feel ( what is truly real)
