With Grace Through The Flowering & The Fading


It is just about...or close to...prime time...for many flowering species...to bloom at
the same time...after long delays in their flowering. I keep reminding myself...that this is the time...to be out in the world...with my cmeras...where the flowers are...
but the days keep slipping by. Perhaps we were given...this extreme spring bounty of
flowers...to first of all...bring the beauty in Creation...right into our faces...so
we no longer have any excuses for not appreciating the beauty. Following swiftly in
the wake of the flowering...is the falling of the petals...and the big fading. I
suppose that is to remind us...of learning to relinquish...those things in our lives
and our world...that can easily develop a hold on us...that we find it hard to shake.
With the fadings also so strongly in our faces...we have...also...ample opportunity...
to practise...letting go. So...looks like the lesson here for me...is to get what
pictures of the great blooming that I can...with ease...and glide with grace...through
the fading when it comes...................Quester.
