]]> Comment on Leaf Peeping – Nature’s Colorful Splendor by David http://giftseclectic.com/leaf-peeping-%e2%80%93-nature%e2%80%99s-colorful-splendor/comment-page-1/#comment-141 David Sun, 14 Nov 2010 14:03:24 +0000 http://giftseclectic.com/?p=1705#comment-141 I couldn't agree more about autumn, with its textures and colors and aromas that give one palpable proof of the coming need to hibernate. There's a strange correlation, for me, between fall and that late afternoon sunshine of any season, rich with tones of gold and red. It means that things are winding down and, despite my wish to keep plugging away, I'm being forced to rest and reboot. Once I get there, the slow-down was well worth it. Happy leaf-crunching.

You've made a huge difference to that Mom who thought she was going quietly, inevitably insane. It's not her 'fault' and she can take action by finding the strength, optimism, joy to lift that child with specific behaviors to counteract a natural melancholy. It will be the greatest investment she can make - a gift to her child, herself, her family, her home. Amazing, challenging, uplifting observations.

Crap! Are you sure you want to Delete? Pressed NO and breathed thanks for a fairly significant ‘saved time & trauma’ miracle. Drove by the DQ without stopping: a teeny didn’t-make-my-butt-bigger-today miracle. Got up at 2 a.m. to watch a meteor shower in the velvet silence of an alone-with-the-Creator-Who-is-my-very-own-God miracle. Visited infant granddaughter in ICU, paced as she underwent life-saving surgery; watched my lionhearted daughter endure and minister tenderly to her baby, realized she’s my hero. A colossal, everything-looks-different-now miracle. Life is good. Miracles happen all around, every minute.

These are wonderful thoughts to keep at the forefront of our minds as we go about our day-to-day lives. I've always been fond of saying, "Miracles come in all shapes and sizes." Occasionally, I'll be the recipient of such a lovely miracle, way BEYOND what I'd dared hoped, dreamt or prayed for, it's so clearly a gift from God, who, of course, knows us better than we know ourselves. The timing can be mind-boggling, it's so right-on! Beautiful words to live by, Mary Beth. Brilliant points!
