Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. For, indeed, that's all who ever have. Margaret Mead
Some caring person put up a handmade sign at the bottom of a trail I often trek through in Crescent Beach.
Although you can't tell by the photo (above), the trail is steep and gets me puffing, which probably means the climb is good for the heart.
I was in my twenties when mom died suddenly after a heart attack. Decades later I'm still not over the shock. Because there are many wonderful paths near my area and to increase my chances of a longer life, I challenge myself when I walk. At the bottom of the hill there's car traffic and a busy railway track.
There's beach access where folks go to refresh, build sandcastles and more.
Mother's Day is upon us. I wondered if the stack of rocks (below) represent mother and child. The big one could be the parent and the smaller one the child, although as we get older it can become the other way around.
Parents tend to shrink over time but mothering instincts never do for women or men who take positive steps big and small. Helpful deeds, like useful signage and walking, can save a life so Happy Mother's Day to whoever added the cautionary note to the back of their artistic
Sandy Trail sign.
