Weekend Snapshot: Happy Easter

IMG 6748


The pain turned to music, and the music softened into warm rain, so gentle that once you were wet you couldn't feel it as something different than what you were. And the thirsty flowers opened and their scent became the sky. The work was done, and what there had been to give was given. (From The Monk Upstairs by Tim Farrington)

  5. What a beautiful photo of a tulip opening as the darkness fades into dawn! This photo reminds me of when I once asked my grandmother what she had learned about life after gardening for 50+ years, given that Native Americans traditionally believe we can learn everything we need to know from nature. My grandmother smiled and said, "Life will find a way."
