Wow and wow again and again! What an amazing bunch of stellar posts today from you, my cherished followers. If I’d reblogged every one of the ones that wowed me I’d have had enough posts for days and days, and then I could have just taken a break from my own! And I could have turned off all the lights and pulled the shades because the light from your posts and your hearts and souls would have lit up the whole house so that I didn’t have to pay my electricity bill for the day. Seriously I don’t know that I’ve ever come across as many posts that blessed my day, brought joy, smiles and laughter, and touched my heart as deeply all on one day. So huge kudos to all of you and thank you guys who bring such delightful offerings, beauty, and light into my world. I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know and am sincerely grateful for the difference you make in my life. May the Lord bless you and keep you now and always!!! Love, Natalie

…give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. ~1 Thessalonians 5:18  ✝

Exuberantly Mother Nature
attempts to lure and entice
us with meandering mountain
streams and brooks. Comforting

sounds to our ears. The
creatures in tropical climates
offer varied sights and music
to our ears. Gazing at

soothing colors of birds, butterflies,
and a myriad of moths, we
are coaxed into wonderment.
There is mystery in the thick,

dense lush verdant forests.
Nature flourishes abundantly
in the tropics. Pleasing to the
eye. Warmer than here.

The delicate wings of
the tiny hummingbird
beguile as it pauses in
flight to kiss the blossom.

Ah, if only life were as
serene. I long for solitary
moments alone in nature.
Hush now. Listen, my soul!
