Mountains & Metaphors
Mountains & Metaphors
Words by writer and speaker, Steve Bell
Welcome to my blog: a showcase for words wrung from a life of adventure and misadventure, commentary on related contemporary issues, and a celebration of what life — through symbol and metaphor — can teach us.
I invite you to join me on a journey of exploration and inquiry.
