Goldenrod grows in abundance on the easement behind my house, swaying gently today on a pleasant autumn breeze. The crystal clear blue sky is a picture perfect contrast. Mother Nature’s beauty is miraculous to behold. When was the last time you just sat for awhile, and observed the scenery around you?
Dragonflies, their striking iridescent bodies, catch the sun as they dip and dive all around me. Turkey vultures circle high above on unseen wind currents, their six-foot wingspan, black on blue, slice through the air in a well orchestrated dance before dining on a meal macabre. Sugar ants, never at rest, walk single file across my fence and an anole suddenly skitters across, catching the attention of my dog who sniffs and snorts in its wake.
It is in these moments that peace overwhelms me. It is in these moments that Spirit fills me to overflowing. It is in these moments that I feel Love beyond measure and I experience gratitude in incomprehensible abundance.
I hope wherever you are, that you took some time to nourish your soul and give thanks for the gift of Life.
Be well.
