Dear God,

There are so many things you do that we never notice.  We see them all the time but we never stop to think, really think about what you are doing in the world.

This morning a sweet revelation came to me.  All trees do not turn color at the same time.  Maples' time of change is different from aspens, pin oaks or beech trees.  The fact that one changes at a time means we get to focus on them one at a time.  Each tree color is different than the next.  The tree just outside my window (I don't know what it is) is full of orange, gold, yellow and green.  Set against many other green trees, pines and evergreens, it is outrageously beautiful.  So my focus daily is upon this wondrous changing color tree.  If they all changed at one time, it wouldn't be nearly as spectacular.

Thank you
for this
morning's insight.
Thank you
for the colors
right outside
my window.
And thank you
for allowing
all the
other trees
to be
on the cusp
of changing.
I love it
and I love you.

Always yours, Andrea
