Mountains afire!
Mountains on Fire! Yellow leaves touched by the sunlight are ablaze with all of the beauty and soul nourishment that only thousands of individual quaking brilliant yellow patches of Love and Peace that God and Mother Nature can deliver.
Dark green evergreen pines contrast this fire with staid strength. As benefactors of trust, outlining the boundaries of each family of aspens, as they count to 10 and burst forth with all of the fire and beauty that can be brought into this sometimes sad and sometimes joyful season of our lives. The highs get higher and the lows seem lower.
And even in the dead of winter We and the Aspens survive, waiting for the sun to once again peak over the mountain and bring it’s warmth, color and yellow flame back to those willing to stop, listen, and feel in the depths of our souls, hearts and and psyches.
So beautiful from afar, and so rugged when entered through the boundaries created by man. To touch the cool softness of a moss covered rock, and know that it may roll out from under your foot and send you tumbling . Can you trust this beautiful safe fiery heaven to bring you home again? Can you find a safe place to rest and absorb the wonder and warmth of this place, that God has created just for your soul? For your peace, for your, heart, for your inner church, your sanctuary. Thank you … Life … for showing me this glimpse of wonder and fire. To remind me there is always Peace and Love and Beauty to be found. It is stored in the center of my soul, that I may survive the grey winter ahead…
