Everyday we are given a choice to turn. It may mean a change of direction, a new plan or a different attitude.
With our winter weather having been such a challenge these last two weeks discouragement had been clouding my mood.
Walking on a cold morning was not something that appealed but two furry friends would not be denied. They wanted outdoors.
As we made our way around the field and turned towards home I found myself captivated by the most spectacular scene. It made me come back to the house and grab the camera.
The sun was rising above the tree tops and casting lovely blue shadows along the woods.
It continued to rise and shine so bright. In that moment my spirit took an upward turn. Such beauty was meant to be enjoyed. Even though winter is not a favorite season of mine there are still beautiful blessings to be found. One just needs to look around and make a small turn.
Speaking of turn - how many of you remember the song "Turn! Turn! Turn!" written by Pete Seeger and recorded by the Byrds? It was based on the 3rd chapter of Ecclesiastes.
Thought I would share this song with you to close. Have a wonderful week and don't forget to take a moment to " turn". Hugs Debbie
"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace." Eccl. 3:1-8 (NIV)
