MESSAGE FROM THE MOUNTAIN

MESSAGE ARCHIVES
​Short reflections on the connection between Nature and Spirituality that can be used in our daily lives.

a week at a glance...and MORE

2023 06-01, 5697 - STRAWBERRY FIELDS – The wild strawberry's tiny white blossoms have taken over parts of the fields around the cabin and in the Orchard. There is nothing like the taste of a wild strawberry, but it takes patience to pick enough for a shortcake. Perhaps a little more patience in life creates more sweetness.

Nature Provides Signs
2023 05-31, 5696 - NATURE PROVIDES SIGNS – As we turned onto the old dirt road leading to the Orchard, we encountered a beautiful female deer standing in the middle of it. It paused as it entered the woods and I spoke a few words to it and snapped a photo. I believe that we were receiving a sign from the Other Side.
​
2023 05-30, 5695 - SEASONAL BEAUTIES – The flowers have been spectacular so far this year, and now the Iris are the center of my attention. I am constantly amazed at the intricate designs Nature creates, and that includes the design that goes into each one of our souls’ purpose.

A Day of Remembrance
2023 05-29, 5694 - A DAY OF REMEMBRANCE – It is Memorial Day in America, a day to pause and give thanks to all the veterans who have served and to those that gave their lives to protect our freedom. I have fond memories of marching in a parade to the cemetery where I placed a flag on my great uncle’s grave.
​
2023 05-28, 5693- NO MOW MAY – There is a movement of homeowners who have lawns that they do not mow them until June. We honor that this year as I am not ready to ride the lawnmower yet. Sometimes we overwork our thoughts or creations to the point where the original concept has been lost.

Being Resourceful
2023 05-27, 5692- BEING RESOURCEFUL – Over the winter the old birch at the edge of what-used-to-be-an-old-garden fell over, and it will still be another month before I can move it with the tractor due to my hip surgery, so my wife decided to pull it out of the way with our side-by-side. Flexible thinking can be resourceful.
​
​2023 05-26, 5691- THE DANCE HAS BEGUN – The lady slippers are dancing in the wind on the mountainside. We love to search for these delicate blooms when they are on display. It is also the time of year when people are beginning to take action on their winter dreams as the dance of life continues.

A Moment's Pause
2023 05-25, 5690- A MOMENTS PAUSE – This is an excellent time of the year to establish a habit of pausing for a moment and taking in Nature's spectacular show, whether it is the smells, the colors, the sounds, or tastes. Being grateful while you pause helps you set your intentions for the day.
​
2023 05-24, 5689 - A SPRING RITUAL – I recently watched a spring ritual play out on our front lawn. A male turkey was strutting his stuff the best he could with several tail feathers missing, try to attract a single female. I wonder if they were misfits in the world of turkeys. I was reminded of people that find their way together.
