2 more pictures in a note above! :)
It rained last night and this morning it was crisp and cool with the sun shining brightly to welcome the new day. I was very excited to look for mushrooms, but once I got out there, I realized it was too soon yet. We will need more rain and damp mornings before my little friends begin waking up again! :)
However, there was a lot of magic in the air, which was fragrant with wet meadow grass, and I began creeping around quietly, looking at everything through the eyes of my inner child. First I looked under a piece of wood and found a sleeping baby lizard there! Cooing softly, I replaced the wood carefully so I didn't disturb my little friend. Then I explored the edge of the woods that meander up our hillside and found a deer trail heading up through the trees. Stepping along the narrow trail, I noticed the sun peeking over the ridge line and making the leaves glow. Seeing an uncommon tree with leaves starting to yellow, I spent a few moments looking for some special leaves to take pictures of. Then I spotted a wonderful, thick, wild honeysuckle vine curling around a branch, and started to take pictures. I wanted to move a vine out of the way and pulled it down to reposition it, and suddently gasped in surprise when I saw what was at the end! "OH WOW!! LOOK AT THE BERRIES!!" I said out loud in excitement, and instantly abandoned the vine wraping around the branch. You know, when you live out on a rural piece of property, there is always something new to discover, and though we've lived here for about 8 years now, I've never seen these berries before!
I took some pictures and was playing around with different angles. Just then, the sun moved a little higher, and a beam of light shone through the trees and right through the berries! I was stunned at how pretty they were with the sun making them glow like Christmas tree ornaments! How amazing it is to discover such beautiful sights. There really was magic in the air this morning, and I'm so happy I was there to find these berries, glowing warmly in the morning sun! :)
Heraclitus of Ephesus (c. 535 – c. 475 BCE) was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher, a native of the Greek city Ephesus, Ionia, on the coast of Asia Minor. He was of distinguished parentage. Little is known about his early life and education, but he regarded himself as self-taught and a pioneer of wisdom. From the lonely life he led, and still more from the riddling nature of his philosophy and his contempt for humankind in general, he was called "The Obscure" and the "Weeping Philosopher".
