Since I've been away from home for so long I've come round to seeing things with new eyes. Here's a gift given me: the day after the movers brought everything back, the sunset was one of those rainwater fresh blazes which lit up the back yard and deck like firelight. I went outside to take some pictures of the colors orange, white and blue, and the light over the hills. I happened to take this one shooting back into the kitchen, illuminated from behind by the sun while reflecting the view and me. I like how you can see my shadow on the far wall inside the house and inside my silhouette.
I'm trying to savor more these days, not just the beautiful moments, but also my own power to supply each trying moment with either patience or the will to change it. I know there are angels watching over us, angels with access to heaven's infinite knowledge and grace. This picture reminds me that my special guardian is always near, thank goodness, even when I'm not aware of her.
