Do You Put Your Best Forward Every Day?

Nature has so many lessons to teach us. We don't always pay attention to what

she is saying but when we do....we have a chance to share a moment of clarity and

wisdom. On our excursion through the Grand Rapids area yesterday, we encountered

this maple tree. How many times have we sped past and not noticed it?

Hundreds, probably. Why did we notice it yesterday?

It shone out its brilliant yellow light on a rainy day, saying: Look at me! In a few days

my golden leaves will be on the ground, so notice me today....right now!

We did. We stopped to take a photo and share it with you. Each day we have the

opportunity to notice and appreciate the beauty around us.

We are enjoying similar Fall colors in our area and they never cease to amaze me! NAture is so wonderful and the change of season is one of my favorite things.

Terry and Bonnie

It took a long time for me to live for just today. Now I have the ability to enjoy the time that I know I will never get back. That tree is absolutely stunning.

Bruce and Sandy: We take so much for granted it is nice to slow down and see whate is right around us. Thanks for the comment.

Very nice photo and accompanying post. Thanks for sharing and the very true statement of noticing things now.

Terry, That is drop dead gorgeous. I LOVE trees and pictures of trees. We don't have the pretty fall colors here in the Houston area. Our leaves won't fall until sometime in December but then they just turn brown and fall. I love having summer most of the year but I do miss the fall colors.

Terry - An excellent reminder to enjoy each day as we travel this road called life for once we have travelled down the road we can not go back.

Tom: Some days it is difficult to understand that we can't control everything and need to just do what we can and enjoy life.

Caron: Glad you enjoyed the photo they don't last long enough.

Marchel: One of the reasons we put up with the weather is the great colors of fall. Glad you enjoyed it.

Kathy: Every day we need to remind ourselves. Glad you enjoyed the post.
