Today: Listen to the trees.

[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] I picked up a bookmark at the Chapel Meeting House earlier this fall and couldn’t help but think of the bookmark’s poem as I scrolled through the pictures I took this morning while strolling with Clark.  Though South Boston isn’t exactly woodland, I suppose its trees still have advice to offer.  Like, perhaps, You’re clogging up the sidewalk with your big camera and little dog, lady.  Move along.

The poem ends with “recycle, recycle, recycle,” but the photo I snapped of crushed Budweiser cans strewn about the park didn’t seem all that inspiring.  Besides, it’s practically 2011.  Everyone knows to recycle.  Right?

Also On Tap for Today:

  • Sending my sincere gratitude to all veterans and their families; your gift of service to our country is so appreciated.
  • 12.5 miles in the neighborhood 🙂
  • Taking my first sewing lesson!

What have you learned from nature lately?

    To chill out,
    to take my space,
    to appreciate my beauty at every age and stage,
    to give and receive,
    to be who I am,
    to persist,
    to trust.
