Above the Fog

This past weekend we headed up north and along the way had the most amazing lesson in fog! We drove in the fog for several hours and then suddenly came out above the fog....

 ....it was the most amazing sunny day with a clear, bright blue sky

 .....but below us the fog was still there

 .....thick and hard to see through

 ....easy to believe that there was no sunshine above

 ....but there we were

 ....in the beautiful sunshine

 .....the trees showed the evidence of the fog with incredibly beautiful hoar frost on them

....I couldn't help but think that it was much like life. We can be in the fog and feel like there is no sunshine, but in fact we just have to be patient until we get above the fog and can see the sunshine that was there all along!
