SHADOWS AND WORRIES

"Afternoon Shadows", acrylic,
by George Lockwood
      Driving on the interstate this morning, we passed through many shadows of trees across the road, and it started me wishing I could pass through my concerns and worries as smoothly and easily. Truth is, worrisome thoughts have no more solidity than shadows. They are like wispy winds of the mind, having less substance and shape than breezes blowing across lawns. The worries that wander into my life would wander right out again if I saw them for what they are – flimsy and frail cerebral shapes, no stronger than shadows across the interstate.
