A few nights ago…


A few nights ago I was outside walking my dog in the darkness. The sidewalks were cleared of the snow that had fallen a few days earlier. The air was cold and calm.

At one point I looked up through the snow-lined branches of a large tree to see the moon nestled in the deepest blue sky with one bright star.

I stood there for a few minutes taking the scene in, my heart warmed by a sense of gratitude for the natural world.

Ever so gently I was brought back down to earth when I noticed two paws resting on my leg and my dog Daisy, tenderly looking up at me.

It was such a sweet moment.

Step outside your door into the nourishment of the natural world. It only takes a few moments of connection for all of your cares to wash away.
