Milkweed
|
2022 07-06, 5367 - MILKWEED – The milkweed is blooming in the Orchard and Lupine Field. The small flowers develop in a round cluster providing space for butterflies to land and bees to collect the nectar. In the fall the seed pods will release their seeds on the wind, just as people seed positive acts.

2022 07-05, 5366 - SALT AIR AND ROSES – There is something about the moist salt air of the ocean that provides just the right environment for roses to flourish with a beauty hard to achieve inland. People can be affected by the right environment, internally and externally, that brings out their abilities.

Unfurled
|
2022 07-04, 5365 - UNFURLED – The American flag unfurled and flying free is a beautiful symbol of the freedoms we currently enjoy in this country, and today we celebrate all those that came before us with infinite wisdom who created the fabric through which the flag continues to fly.

2022 07-03, 5364 - SETTING SAIL – We paused from our walk on the edge of the harbor to watch a large boat under sail. It traveled across the bay and eventually dropped its sails close to where we were. It reminded me of how people set sail every day on the waters of life.

Beacons of Light
|
2022 07-02, 5363 - BEACONS OF LIGHT – We love to visit and photograph lighthouses, as we recently did on the coast of Maine. The Bass Harbor Light is a unique one tucked away above the ocean with a stunning view. Some people are like lighthouses who shine their spiritual lights to help others.

2022 07-01, 5362 - THE FIRST ORANGE LILIES OF THE SUMMER – I have been waiting for the first of the orange day lilies to open and now they have. I often use Nature as a way of keeping track of the seasons. There is always something new to discover all year long as we walk the path of our soul.

Crown Vetch and Clover
|
2022 06-30, 5361 - CROWN VETCH AND CLOVER – One of my favorite walking meditations is through Nature’s beautiful wild floral arrangements like the crown vetch blooming in the middle of pink clover. There are also many beautiful arrangements in our lives that appear along the path of our soul.

2022 06-29, 5360 - FINDING YOUR BALANCE – There is a glacial erratic known as the Balance Rock on the shoreline of Bar Harbor ME that was deposited by the last Ice Age. I am reminded that it is our belief which gives us balance when life seems to be on a precarious perch.
