Obstacle practice #200!
I sat down to write about overcoming obstacles and what constitutes an obstacle. It was a struggle trying to find the right words. The rocks in the river of life come in so many forms, some are internal others external. I consulted Webster’s for synonyms, and nothing felt right.
