Who would need much more than this? This gift of life that surrounds me. The beauty in a single tree, the cry of birds nearby. This ground beneath my feet, The rock upon which I sit and enjoy these things.
The peace of the wind upon my face, caressing my skin, breathing through my hair, breathing through the world around me, giving me my own breath. The sun warming my back, the forest that I am setting within, this river all around me, flowing heavy with the recent rain.
Rain that washed the air clean for me to breath, rain that cleared the wind and made it sweet with the scent of the earth, Rain that soaked the world about me with a cool needed drink.. Clouds puffy white against the cornflower blueness of the sky.
Life is growing all around me. Butterflies are giving chase in some magical dance, Dragonflies darting about, Hummingbirds are at the mountain laurel. Each plant around a different beauty, with each its own different use.
How peaceful in this spot I am, How thankful for this life I am.... ME
