A two-fer…

This always looks like one tree sharing two sets of beauty to me. Maybe it is or maybe it isn't, after all, I'm not a botanist. But I see individuality in community, and each making a respectful place for the other. And dogwoods. Just more dogwoods.

Emancipation day…

Transformation before my very eyes. That's how it happens...you look and look, and all seemes the same. Then a little push from the inside and a light but insistent breeze and poof! The new green of change becomes visible. Well, that is Friday for you. And yes there is a small political statement buried in all this green and pink. Emancipation day it is.

Focus?

Our beloved Gracie, the first of our beagle fur children, used to do a trick where she balanced a treat on her nose to the command, "Focus, focus, focus." She was only released to eat the delicious morsel one of us spoke the command, "Eat it up!" There were so many reasons that she was known as "Gracie, the wonder dog." Last year, at this time in #pandemiclife I needed the camera see for me. I could sense the world around me but I couldn't focus at all. The camera focused for me. This morning, I find myself complaining that the camera simply can't capture all that I can see.…

Beauty always wins…somehow

And today's lesson for Easter season. The beauty of Creation will not be denied. Humanity can trim and shape and mold and decide, but beauty, in the form of life and growth will not be stopped. Yes, we can ignore it at our own peril. But Beauty goes on without us. We must learn that our role is to witness not to control.

Not playing favorites…

I know I said that I liked the green ones best. But the pink and whites caught my attention today. Maybe I'm fickle. Or maybe it is because it is Tuesday. Or maybe I just like all the dogwoods and there are so many in bloom of all kinds that it is overwhelming my senses with beauty.

A little later than usual…

There were so many choices this morning. Dogwood. Late cherry. Redbud. Irises, daffodils and tulips. Birds. But then, there was this. In this pandemic April, as the anxiety and fear that drove my early walks last year subsides just a little, I'm walking a little later so the sun is usually on its merry way. But this morning, there was this. For which I am more than grateful.

Laugh of the day…

I didn't know that I needed a laugh on my walk this morning, but something knew I was out of sorts and provided one. Always remember to look up when you see that movement on the periphery of your vision, both physical vision and that other kind...

Hate has no home here…

And a happy Monday to all. I took a long walk in the morning beauty this morning but unlike many mornings I had an itinerary in mind. I wanted to see firsthand the response of the people of St. Marks Capitol Hill to an act of hatred in this peaceful courtyard (a noose was hung from one of the trees recently, apparently a far too often act in DC). The signs are a witness to love in the face of hate. I know, for many, this is a small action, but if you walk the perimeter ( as I did in the video) and this act of saying no to…
