Viola sensibility - morning sanctuary

Viola Droplets.jpg

This morning I was walking my spiritual advisor and pondering Bill Viola’s thoughts from last Wednesday. My mind was still cloudy with dream fragments and I noticed something beautiful near our feet. It is very likely that I would have missed the water droplets, refracting light on a magnificent iris, if I had been ingesting a triple latte and listening to my favorite opera. I’m so grateful to have had that moment of reflection, before I neurotically ran back to my house to get my camera. It was an experience, in Bill’s words, that I "needed to share."

There isn't much in this world that provides one with the peace of a beautiful morning walk with a good friend.

You pics are wonderful. I love the light of fall. The low angles and orange light make for some beauty; how fortunate are we to have Irises still blooming in mid-november.

Nature is astounding.

Thanks.
