October mind

So I am receiving hints that I am trying peoples patience with my blog. But that's not why I am posting. I was reading in Barns and Nobles and as usual fishing was the books main content(hunting was there too) and I realized that fishing stories are just outlets for peoples feelings or else boasts about the fish they caught. I prefer the former but that is because when I read them I think of lakes in the Beartooths where if you aren't catching fish you can listen and look around you just drinking it in and if you are like me you are quickly cut down to size you realize how big the mountains realy are and that you are nothing compared to them. When I think about past trips I can not remember half the details of the lake because there is so much of it and when you realize that God created all of it fish seem kind of small in the larger perspective. Anyways I was reading and as usual it takes me forever to decide that fishing is not about the fish so much but is a way to remind ourselves that we are fragile and God is eternal.
