Out of the Woods

The woods are often mysterious and deep. The plantings she harbors provide variegation, shade, depth, beauty; safety and danger, as well as life and death. Mankind is also multifaceted; somewhat wild and dangerous like the woods. Even among the best of us, "the heart is desperately wicked, who can know it?" Jim is thrust in and out of the woods like many of us. He comes to terms with what is expected from him, makes a statement in the world, and leaves the woods one last time to be forever home at last. This is his story from a storyteller's words written down in a mysterious binder.
