August Break:The Dancing Tree

  In keeping with the theme of what delights me in the morning, this is the view through the windows by my beautiful red chair. This tree is much larger than it appears and is usually in some sort of motion from all the creatures who scurry from limb to limb. This morning I spent a good 10 minutes watching the shadow dancing on our neighbors house before I realized what I was doing. I love that kind of meditation.
  An unexpected treat of participating in the August Break is knowing that some of the women I love the most are playing along as well. Recently, I've read a few articles about Internet social relationships via Facebook, emails, blogs etc. Some people question the value and purpose. At the risk of being controversial( haha, as if I care), I'm going to stand up and declare, " I am freakin' grateful as all get out to have them!" So there. My world has been enriched and nourished in countless ways since I first read a friend's blog 2 years ago. From that one blog, friendships have been made that will last a lifetime and I am eternally grateful.
  That's all for now. I'm off to check out the lovely photos on my Flickr village site and say "Hi" to my online tribe.

EnJoy,
Grace
