Discovery

This child. All of eighteen months, placed into clear baptismal waters at the base of Wright Creek Falls. Grandmother captures the moment in a photo. I wish I could have captured the look on this child’s face, his blond curls damp from the waterfall’s spray. It is a full-face joy, transcending amazement, transcending wonder, transcending rapture. It is a look of pure… fulfillment. His is a face that says, beyond words, that he found his place in the world, that hs recognizes his place on this planet, outside, sitting on his bum in cold creek water, mica glistening at his feet, witnessing the majesty of a waterfall. ~K
