Contemplation
“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature — the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.”
~ Rachel Carson, Silent Spring
Shortly before sunrise … my heart sings with joy and I say a prayer of thanks, as I strive to stay strong and hopeful … marveling at this serene beauty during the glorious blue hour… on the first full day of Spring! Peace and Love to All!
