For Nature is Wise

For Nature is Wise

As I gazed out on the autumn landscape, it occurred to me that there are lessons to guide us through all things if we are only open to receive them.

See how the leaves create a beautiful, vibrant show for the world.
Even in their time of death, they display a colorful glory that stills the soul.

It is by this exquisite example that I hope to move through the loss of our love.
In times of grief, especially, one must open their whole being to all living things, and view life in all its splendor.

I shall listen with a quiet heart, and observe with undiscriminating, insatiable curiosity.
Teach me how to live, oh, Life.
