"So much to worry about, so much to be grateful for."
I heard this in a video or read it somewhere, but did not seem to make a notation regarding where or who. My apologies to this person. At any rate, it rang true for me and I wanted to share it. Just thinking about it this way is helpful these days.
Today when we asked each other the familiar question about where to go for our walk, we both had thought of the same place, the 'Little Free Library' trail. So, that's where we went. It was hot @ 93 degrees and I was pretty worn out when we got home, but still glad we went.
There were so many dragon flies and songbirds singing their lovely songs. A soaring hawk and some kind of large wasps? flying over an open 'meadow' area. I didn't slow down to get a better look!
A walnut tree full of nuts and another one with none to be seen...but, a few squirrels racing back and forth across the road. When we looked to the tree they were running towards, we saw their huge home mound, which was probably filled with all of those walnuts! It was wild! Photos below - you can see the mound to the right of the tree in the bottom pic.
I found two itty-bitty crow feathers, which was great since I've mailed off all of the ones I'd previously found. A new collection of them begun today.
It was good to get out, even if it was in the weighted heat of August.
Later, at home, I switched up some colors and warped the little loom again. I'm calling this one Garden Party.
“Hope is not a passive thing” ECM @ Resistance Live on You Tube.
What do you give names to?
May you be in agreement with loved ones
May you hold small worries and large heaps of gratefulness
May you engage with hope
