In the Spring, life begins
with everything new
and full of hope.
Innocence, laughter and
carefree abandonment
fill each day.
The nuance of being alive
is celebrated continually
with no thought of the future.
Summer arrives with laughter,
learning, sunshine and
phenomenal growth.
Choices are abundant and
the opportunities are spread
before us like a feast.
We learn about relationships,
love, abandonment,
neglect and the pain of letting go.
In between the joys, we discover
that there is nothing greater
than love’s fulfillment.
In the Fall we begin to relax
expectations with a clearer
perspective of the past and future.
Some give up the battle to change
or improve, remaining stagnant,
while others continue excitedly learning.
Winter arrives with wrinkles in
soft skin that show regrets,
accomplishments and wisdom.
The path has narrowed and
the life we chose stretches
behind us as a legacy.
Let your story be rich with
loving relationships, laughter, joy
and a journey of happiness.

Thank you for sharing not only the beautiful photos, but your words. They were just what I needed this morning after a stressful day yesterday. I love coincidences (whispers?) that remind me of what is important. I am grateful.
What a beautiful post, rich in images and thoughts. I find myself thinking along these lines more and more, now that I am getting older.

Wonderful post Red. The pictures and sentiments are beautiful. People should remember that all of the seasons in our lives have good and bad….but they can't "hibernate" or they will miss the goodies !!
Have a great Wednesday.
Beautiful!
beautiful and so true
As hot as I am today, the snow looks good. But when I think of the work it will bring my husband in a very short time, I truly dread it this year. I love the picture of the corn, one of my favorite summer sights!
A beautiful and insightful piece! Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
