An Incomprehensive and Infallible Experience
I have been wanting to write a few thoughts down for sometime but kept pushing it back because I could not quite pin point my experience and let alone found right words for it.
***********
It has been half way through my intended six weeks trip and it becomes more and more clear to me each day that I want to record this journey in certain way so that I can put it in perspective and preserve it in a reviewable form. I have not found a proper way to do this yet. Not only the pictures I took along the way did not do the amazing scenery justice, the journal I wrote could not describe what I saw and how I felt. Recording the structural aspect of daily routine is quite straight forward. It is the non-structural aspect hard to grasp. I have no proper words for the resonance of the heart within to the nature without. And these personal experiences were as real as the images captured in my camera. They are not to be invalidated in any way.
I finally can better relate to Thomas Moore’s expereince of a nameless and infallible God (“The Soul’s Religion”). Only when one respects God’s grandeur, incomprehensibility and infallibility, one can see God is within everything and in everywhere. I began to believe the impact of this extraordinary journey is meant to be exceeding the limitation of my language ability and beyond the comprehension of my personal experience and wisdom.

Stayed at Lake Lucille Park Campground, Wasilla last night. I was one of the only two campers there, other than the camp host.
Have a McDonald's breakfast at this beautiful Wasilla Lake side.
