Day 8 - 312 -- Moments of Calm

Today dawned bright and sunny with not a cloud in the sky. Temperature rose close to 15C/60F. I had a great walk out to do errands in mid-afternoon. I can't believe it is November. We must enjoy the warmer sunny days as we get them. Things will change too soon. 

The weather had me thinking of living in the moment -- enjoying what is given to us daily. Today it was the amazing natural world that helped me find some moments of calm. Some of the heartier flowering plants still show the great colours. I love the asters -- from the tiny ones about 1/4 inch in diameter to those an inch across. The purple colours range from a pale lilac to a gorgeous deeper tone. Clover was in bloom, also, with even more purple shades. Some of these required attention to detail as they were hidden in plain sight <smile> -- nestled amongst the grass or behind shrubs and tree trunks. Fun little treasures to discover while walking. 

Lyrics that provide a goal for living a more peaceful existence are shared tonight. Something to ponder and work towards perhaps. Keep safe. Enjoy!
