Counting my blessings
Most of the leaves have fallen, halloween is over, and once again many Canadians begin dreading the long cold days and nights of the frozen north, and I am definitely one of them. As I took this picture a week ago, I just couldn’t keep my mind focused on the glorious fall display, but kept drifting imaginatively into the numbing days ahead of snow, freezing rain, ice, and howling winds. How hard it is to keep focused on one’s blessings and enjoy the present moment.
