Watching the sky at dusk last night, I knew something was on it's way. From 6 pm until 3.27 am we had an electrical storm with forked lightening, enormous amounts of hail, then snow and an earthquake. After the earthquake I got up and peered into the darkness wondering why the world looked so pale. Then I realised everything was covered in snow . . . again.
It was so glorious this morning.
Three weeks ago our almost brand new TV died. It's been the best thing ever. I don't know what's happening in the world anymore. Everything becomes so much more present and immediate.
I learn everything I need to know about today's weather from standing under a heart shaped cloud,
I know it's spring time because I met some tiny lambs in a field,
and I know the world is beautiful because I am deep in it.
And yes, I know I've shared this before, but really . . .
"Sometimes I need
only to stand
wherever I am
to be blessed."
