Just a little

I’ve got a few minutes to spend with you, my readers. I’ve been thinking a lot about what I like most about this time of year. I know it’s not everyone’s favorite. Truthfully, this is probably the first year I’ve really taken the time to see the beauty around me. Take for example this morning, I’m driving to work along Marine Dr. probably the greatest road to drive in the morning. Anyways, it’s crisp air and sharp contrasts made for a rare time to worship my creator. The sky was grey and a faint mist, almost like a fog. As I’m driving I’m seeing the bright yellows and reds and dancing in between them is their friend orange. You remember those paintings with the woman in a red dress but the picture is black and white? It’s like that almost but was real. I enjoy the smell of the rain contrasted with the leaves and wood during certain parts of the drive. I might be crazy driving with my window cracked but it’s hard not to sometimes when I have a motorcycle and enjoy all senses being involved as I travel. 

I also like the artistic inspirations I get from this time of year as well. I’m not about to paint the Mona Lisa, but I feel there’s more to draw from when I feel the time comes to paint or draw, or even write. 

It’s just a great reminder that God loves us, and shows it in so many ways. It’s a great way to start a morning. Looking forward to tomorrow’s drive as well.
