It’s still pretty warm here in Spokane, but that hint of fall is definitely there. YES. The blossoms on my Veteran’s Honor roses are full and bright red, another reminder that God is the most brilliant artist of all. Now is the time to cut a plump, dozy blossom and float it in my crystal rose bowl–too beautiful. Why, when I think of the jillions of different flowers and fish and animals, I’m awed. No two snowflakes have ever been alike, and no two ever will. Same with people, grains of sand, you name it. Everything God creates is a total original. And that’s just Earth. What else is out there?
And then there’s the theory that the entire universe is really a mere atom in something infinitely larger.
I can’t help it, I get carried away. 🙂 We are so lucky to be alive, here and now, troubles or no troubles.
To quote the poet (loosely)…”the world is so full of wonderful things, that we should all be happy as kings.”
So today I am going to be happy.
How about you?
