Yesterday's hike up to Gem Lake was sunny, warm, and spirited. I love the Spring! When I photographed a Limber Pine cone resting on the barely frozen lake surface, the cone looked like it was floating!
"Floating" seemed to be the lesson of the day, as a Green Hairstreak flitted suddenly onto the Easter Daisies I was photographing, and a fly kept returning to a Pasqueflower. This week, may all of us realize that our thoughts and emotions are - at their core - actually light and transparent! Our temptation is to think that they are solid, weighty, and often oppressive. In reality, however, our thoughts, emotions, plans, worries and joys are all floating on the vast lake or atmosphere of divine awareness, love and bliss :)
