contemplation

December is about to end

January is peeking her head

2013 is rolling around the corner

a new year is a great time to reflect • re-calibrate

ponder on goals we accomplished and new goals to set

find the wind •hoist our sails and re-chart our course 

What was the single best thing that happened

to you this year?

What was the single most challenging 

thing that happened?

What was an unexpected joy?

What was an unexpected obstacle?

What was your single most time waster 

this year?

What was the single biggest thing about

yourself that you learned this past year?

enjoy &

... all the best this upcoming year!!

expectation

we haven't had a good rain for months

this is Puget Sound • North West United States

we depend on the rain

feathery ferns & dripping mosses

green green green 

well .. that is the way it is suppose to be

yards are sooooo golden brown

the path in the woods is crackly rather than soft & spongy

Rain is in the forecast for this afternoon!!!!

let the rain kiss you

let the rain beat upon your head

with silver liquid drops

let the rain sing you a lullaby

the seasons are changing

there is a crisp in the air in the mornings

autumn is peeking her head

time keeps ticking forward

nothing endures but change

not a threat
