Re-seeing the familiar
I always saw spring as beautiful. New growth, young being born, fresh scents in the air, and warmth from the sun. Now I am beginning to see fall just as beautiful. It always was a nice time of year, but now I appreciate a beautiful death. One that gives a new perspective and new life to all that surrounds.
Take these leaves, for example.
We see them underfoot as they fall from the trees.
Yet, do we admire the beauty in their death? And the new life it brings?

Little white specks
Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw snow, gently falling to the ground.
A few seconds later I see it again. This time is was clear that indeed there was snow falling!
It was a cloudy morning, Honey and I were dressed warmly for our walk. As we set off along the train we enjoyed the beautiful snow as it fell. It seemed to dance in the blowing wind then gently fall to the ground where it disappeared.
At the lookout we watched the clouds move across the sky. Black and low, yet the sun still poked through in places.
We stopped to enjoy this moment, as everything around us seemed to be absorbed by the first snowfall of the year.
