Cardinal In the Pines

There is no telling how many miles you will have to run while chasing a dream.

About the image: Shot from my back deck. This is a favorite hiding place for the cardinals. This image is also one of my best sellers in my Kreations by Kerri Nature Store at Cafe Press.

Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach some of us more than we can ever learn from books.

We Only Have This Moment

We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand... and melting like a snowflake. Let us use it before it is too late.

Be Aware of Wonder

taken last year during one of our ice/snow events
How many of us go through our days unaware of the wonder around us? Every moment we have on this Earth is a unique gift, and we should cherish those moments and use them wisely ~ And be aware of the wonder around us.

Be aware of wonder. Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.

~Robert Fulghum
