Rain and wind greet our grey dawn this morning. Quiet and subdued, trees and plants recieve the blessing as birds chirp their welcome between squalls. Issues call my attention away from this peace, and yet I linger a little longer, soaking up the solitude.
The last 3 months have been full of elder alert throughout my mother’s multiple hospitalizations. Fortunately, she’s back home now with my brother’s care as the home healthcare workers begin their contracted shifts. These blessings compound those of nature for those of us with eyes to see.
Can you open to receive the blessings of nature? Do you have the privacy that solitude requires? Ki to Happiness gets up early enough to steep in the many blessings of the present.
