Sometimes it can be challenging,knowing of the direction you are facing is the one intended. Sometimes we turn to the world around us for the confirmation. Sometimes we ask for signs. 

This sign appeared at the most unconventional time, just outside my bedroom window in the middle of winter.  Snow lays on the ground behind it.  This winter delight stayed with me for over two weeks, reminding me to stay focused, that no question goes unheard, that no step goes unnoticed. 

This winter my north star came to me in the image of a rose.
