Beloved

Brand new day. If you look closely enough at this Twitter photo, there is a sliver of the moon dancing in the swirling clouds.

Then I took a gentle walk outside, just to see...

Waiting for the sun this morning in the front garden, I added the treasures I collected this trip along the shell pathway.

I thought I would have enough time to finish and catch the sunrise from the back deck. The sun had other plans.

The sunrise shot below is taken sitting on the ground, looking up.

"And did you get what 

you wanted from this life, even so? 

I did. 

And what did you want? 

To call myself beloved, to feel myself 

beloved on the earth."

~ Raymond Carver
