47::365
tuesday breakfast table

there is the softest, loveliest snow falling now,
and i am calm and steady this morning,
even though i barely slept
last night;
i lay awake,
worrying and wondering,
and listening for the sound
the night air makes
just before it starts
to snow.

wish I could join you for a cup of that tea...the same snow you describe could be seen here about three hours ago. xo

I am sorry that your worry kept you from your sleep.

I often worry my sleep away. I learned a new mantra from Deepak Chopra in an app for my iPod Touch, which helps. 'Om agasti shahina'. Repeat it as you try to sleep instead of counting sheep. If you have the iPhone or Touch I would recommend the app highly; it's called "Stress Free with Deepak Chopra."

But then, from my vantage point, you seem to have the gift of a self-righting boat.

Namaste

I am back to look at the light in these photos. How are you capturing so much light this time of year?
