Breathing Space

At dawn, with the moon hanging low in the sky, the Earth seems to pause. I stop in the silence and breathe. Anything seems possible.

Here's what I tell myself:

Be aware. Life is what's happening now.

Photo taken at sunrise, Bryce Canyon, UT.

    This photo takes my breath away and as stunning as it is probably doesn't do the real thing justice. Amazing!!

    I hate 'wow' comments, but, all the same, 'wow'!

    I've been listening to Jon Kabat-Zinn's book on Mindfulness for Beginners. Life is a series of moments - we need to make the time to appreciate each one.

    I've heard many times about the beauty of Bryce Canyon and I've been wanting to go there for years. Perhaps one day I will make it, but until then, your photo fulfills my wish. The moon was magical. Nice shot Barb, and thoughts too. happy week to you.
