… a new year is in the process of rolling across the planet … no other creature on earth cares as it only marks the beginning of another day as earth wobbles its way around the sun … a marking point for sure and most importantly it is another chance to get it right. Now is all we have and that is not guaranteed either.
We’ll start the year with a couple of Great Blue Herons … in the shot above our friend has struck and came up with a miss and below, the same story, but with a little more effort involved. They eventually got their food, but like all good things, it takes some effort and the will to go on, miss after miss.
Starting 2024 on Lake Pleasant in the morning and I’m sure I will have some misses too, but I may get the most fabulous shot ever … will not know until after I have tried!
Wishing you every good thing and blessing of life as we continue our journey after passing yet another marker … Happy New Year!
Ted
When I wander in places of greed for gain I have
no desire; the grass of the meadow and the stars
of the night comfort me. Though darkness overcome
me, I shall not despair; the God of my youth still abides
with me. He showeth me the palaces of the rich and
the haunts of the poor, yet keepeth sweet my soul.
When weariness overtakes me, I lie down in slumber,
and the peace of the world is upon me. Though poverty
abide with me, I pray that courage and gentleness
forsake me not. And with all living things out of the
earth and out of other worlds I believe I shall grow
in the fields of God forever.
A Psalm by Max Ehrmann
