A man who works with his hands is a labourer. A man who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. A man who works with his hands, his head, and his heart is an artist.
Francis Of Assisi
While scraping the car’s windshield in the dark this morning I could hear the geese on the pond announcing to the world the approaching new day. I was well aware of their secret, which is why I crawled out from warm covers and made my way to Pineridge Natural Area. I regularly make my way to this sanctuary in nature, needing to experience these sacred moments. I am filled with gratitude for the dawn of this new day, its promises, and the mysteries of what it holds. Now time for a cortado. May you also enjoy the unfolding of this day!

Little windshield scrapping was required here this past winter, which is both good and bad.
It’s good to have routines, especially if they include visits to such a lovely place and result in beautiful photos you share. I’ve always found gratitude in my life, but what that gratitude is for has certainly changed as I’ve grown older. 😊

I also have found the things I’m grateful for are not the same as 10, 20, 30 years ago. They seem to be much more simple and in the past taken for granted. I have found it a good practice to write a list of things I’m grateful for each day. Hope you and Bonnie enjoy your weekend!
