The Journey Across Troubled Waters
A ferryman transports a traveler across troubled waters to the distant shore. The traveler takes no active role in this journey. He sits on deck, tired, removed from the world, wounded and withdrawn. When he is carried to the other side, he will rise again to walk his life path. For now, he gathers strength and allows the healing of body and spirit to do its work.
