  • HAVING A DESTINATION

    One of my favorite destinations when the weather is good is just a short walk from the cabin to the bench at the top of the Lupine Field. There I take a few moments to let my mind float away into the Cosmos. For me it is good to have destinations or goals that are flexible; I am grateful my team is in charge of getting me there.

  • TIME FOR A GRASS CUT

    It is the time of year when we need to cut the grass in the fields in preparation for next year’s growth. If this isn’t done, the forest will take over shortly. In life things can become overgrown and cover up our original intentions. We need to set our intentions to be aware of what needs to be done to move forward.

  • AN OVERABUNDANCE

    We have an overabundance of sweet fern growing on the mountainside. It thrives anywhere there is an open space. In other locations it is desirable as a landscape shrub. It is good to find a balance in life and repurpose the things that do not serve us anymore.

  • STILL LINGERING

    The yellow leaves are still lingering on the tree while in other places the colors have faded. I enjoy the lingering color, but I think of negative habits people have that linger because they don’t want to or know how to change. Setting a positive goal for the change and every day reminding yourself of your intentions may help create success.

  • CASTING A SHADOW

    As the daylight wanes and the sun slides westward the shadows grow longer. This fall ritual of Nature creates an interesting pattern of light versus dark on the mountains. People often think casting a shadow mean an omen of negativity. I believe each of us has the ability of shining a light of positivity and hope over any darkness.

  • A CRUNCHY CARPET

    Now that the foliage season is winding down, the ground is covered with a crunchy carpet of leaves. The woods come alive with the sound of movement not heard during the summer. Each sound makes us wonder what is making it. Life itself can become more alive when we pay attention.

  • MAGICAL MOMENTS

    Each day my goal is to set my intentions to experience magical moments following my soul’s path. One such moment happens when I see the mountains across the valley. I feel heart-based gratitude, and my senses feel alive as I intend to share what I feel through positive actions.

  • FINDING JOY IN EVERY DAY

    If time and weather allow, I intend to find an opportunity every day to walk a trail on the mountainside. For me it is a wonderful way to experience joy and peace. I think one of the secrets of finding balance in life is to discover something that brings you heartfelt joy, which I am grateful to share with others.

  • THE FOREST UNDER ATTACK

    I noticed several oak tree tips on the ground. Something was attacking them. Almost every species in the woods has a type of pest trying to get nourishment from them, causing damage. A lot of people feel that they are living under some kind of attack. It is comforting to believe that something is watching over us.

  • LOOKING INTO THE DISTANCE

    From the top of the Mountain I can observe the valley below and the ridges and peaks. Looking north  I can look into the distance and see the large mountains known as the Great Whites. I can feel the cold breeze and yet I can only imagine what is like to be up there. It is good to have different views wherever we are in life.
