Good Sunday Morning

Good Sunday morning yall..God is giving my area a bath this morning and she must be trying to wake us up cause it is a freezing water she is using. Doesn't the world just look different after a good rain? Cleaner and fresher...when it is a gentle rain..cause ms rain can hook up with a few of her friends, lady hurricane and ms torrential rain and don't let them invite old man winter and his side kick blizzard, the seasons and nature are indeed marvels that never ceased to amaze me as I walk this winter road on the journey called life.

I spend a lot of time observing nature in my hood. a free show everyday if i just take the time to watch, no matter what the seasons and mother nature plus father time have a schedule to keep and you can't change the schedule. When it is time for winter, than winter it will be, the flowers will grow in the spring, thrive in the summer and prepare for sleep in the fall and the cycle continues.

I like to watch the birds, younger I just thought of them as birds", but my son made me start paying attention to them. I remember one day watching I think it was two hawks fighting over their prey in the air and it was a serious fight both were working with those feet. Both had one claw on the prize and they where swiping at each other with the free claw. One hawk slipped and missed while the other connected, the winner flying off with the prize. As above so below, kinda. How many times do we find ourselves in just that type of situation, we holding on to something so tight that if we "slip", it's gone. Sometimes it's just better to let it go, there'll be another time. Look at the lesson and file it away, but keep your eye out for that hawk. They'll surface one day yet again, be ready this time.
