The Unexpected Journey of the boy in the green boat

The Unexpected Journey

Ralph trembled in the boat as he clutched the wooden oars, his small hands trembling slightly as the old green rowboat drifted across the misty lake. The early morning fog circled him, creating a very dark and mysterious scenery of soft grays and muted blues. He had lot his way to the lighthouse, he could not see the light. What had started as a simple fishing trip with his pet dog Diamond from the village cabin had turned into an unexpected adventure. He thought he had known where the river was going but the weather had changed without warning, the familiar became unfamiliar, the lake's edge shoreline had disappeared behind the mysterious fog, and Ralph realized he was completely alone.

He had an anxiety attack and began to cry out, help me! He heard his mother's voice whisper, 'when you feel an anxiety attack take deep breaths, stay calm and remember the river has a memory and it will take you home".
