I loved Jude's post today. I could relate. Some edges get softer, blur a bit more as we age. I appreciate that.
There are things we lean into, or away from...depending.
There are times when we stand tall and the sky's the limit, which then means, there are no limits!
It seems there are so many layers lately. Cloud layers, one behind the other. Tree layers, one behind the other and only seen if you change position, Layers within the trees: hidden pinecones, birds that land and then cannot be seen. I wonder what else is there, that I can't see?
Birds seen and unseen...
...and pinecone surprises!
Cloud stories
Trust Time Thursday: Scattered like the clouds in the sky
12/1: Trust on the wind
Can one be tapped out on Trust? Tired of trying? Yet, just keep showing up, keep trying...can one, can I trust in that? Loyal to self, to Trust...
12/9: (Not Thursday, but fine with that). Trust is like a prayer. Trust and identity. When an identity changes, what happens? What happens to that related Trust? Trust as an act of Bravery. Trust as an element of resiliency.

Over at Grace's...the idea of "Faith Friday" came up. Part of my comment read: "It's funny, this week...Trust...I thought how well this would work with many other words. It sure gives a different feel to my commute!
So, this could be considered then? 'Faith' would be an interesting word for me to consider as I am not a "religious" person in any organized sense of the word. So, to consider this word, would be to reframe how I have always looked at it, understood it. All of that could be interesting. Grace mentioned Trust as a 'practice'...for me (again perhaps because of the commute) it has been more of a consideration, very verbal in nature. I reflect in words. Perhaps one day, someday I'll practice differently? Right now the wordy considering works well for me. I still am enthralled with how the words, questions or phrases pop into my head, fully formed and ready to be examined. That is really something to me.
May you enjoy the views along the way
May you send off goodness, to travel on its own
