Just A Snippet…

…of what I saw on my walk this morning –

A spider’s web at a garage sale I went to.

Gumnut flowers, just opened up, on the way home.

I don’t know what this is, but it called to me…

There were also a lot of feathers, of varying sizes, in various places. I picked up a couple and brought them home. Such a lovely morning for a walk!

Today was a bit of a day… I was in a tussle with The-Government-Department-Which-Shall-Not-Be-Named for most of the day, and it still hasn’t been resolved.
It’s been a lovely sunny day, though – hasn’t it?
Just before lunch I decided to go for a walk. I walk through the nearby cemetery, which tends to concentrate my thoughts anyway… on this walk, I noticed several things. I was contemplating the problems of money, or the lack of it, as I was walking along the road. I looked down, and there was a five cent piece at my feet.

No, it’s not going to pay off the mortgage. It’s a reminder, though, that I’m blessed and provided for.

I turned in to the cemetery and noticed a tiny spider web in the grass at my feet.

You might not be able to see that very well – the slightly foggy looking bit in the middle is a fine gossamer web, the only one left at that time of the morning. I walked through here earlier in the morning a couple of days ago. There were hundreds of these in the grass, sparkling with dew. They didn’t last. I saw this one and thought of perseverance.

Lives change suddenly, in big ways or in small. Mine is taking a bit of a detour at the moment – not in a massive way – just requiring a shift in thought and action. My third sight for the day was the bright yellow dandelions dotted through the grass. I suppose if you have a lawn to care for, you have a different view of dandelions… I love them. They’re tiny, but they pop up all over, regardless of the surroundings, turning their shining faces to the sun.
