It’s been so long since my last post, I’ve nearly forgotten how to blog!
Life has been life in the past few months. I wake each day and know wonder awaits me. I’m never disappointed.
Work has been a lifeline to wonder. Let me share because despite pain, in the words of Maya Angelou … and still I rise.
I worked in Busselton, Western Australia, where Geographe Bay is stunning at sunset. I stood and watched the sun go down, just happy to be in a happy space.
My lunch hour in the car park the arboretum in Kalgoorlie, in the Goldfields is always a mindful moment, where the mallee bookleaf bloomed for butterfly, bee and me.
I wake to these gorgeous tiny brown honeyeaters in Geraldton in the Midwest where they rest outside my hotel room. They are tiny and noisy. I know people like this!
The fabulous sunrise at Mt Magnet, an outback town in the Midwest where I drink my morning coffee alone in silence. The Granites is a magnificent place.
In Esperance, somehow a young kangaroo is always a delightful encounter.
The elegant white face heron at Woody Lake, Esperance, another favourite haunt.
The silver eye were everywhere, their colours as vibrant as the moment we shared.
And about 18 kms out of Margaret River, I went looking for the exquisite splendid blue wren.
I love how they stand at height and then look down into the leaves.
Morsel found.
A perfect picture for me.
Like I said, life is life at the moment. Each day I wake positive and with full knowledge, life is a gift. I accept it with both hands and a grateful heart. How can I not when nature shares so generously?
So, despite it all, each day, I rise.
Until next time
As always
a dawn bird
