I stare and stare. It seems I was called for this: To glorify things just because they are.

  2. Oh man, my limitation with the English language is painfully obvious, for I keep offering the same adjectives over and over again – I will add a new one about – the first couple are ethereal – and they all are magnificent

  8. The first time I read your title I read it as, “I stare and share’ — and thought – how wonderful you do!
    Stare and stare is equally as wonderful — and then the face you share what you experience is a beautiful invitation to pause, rest and breathe.
    A lovely way to begin and experience my day — pause, rest, breathe.
    Thank you!

  11. I was staring too – that tree in the 2nd one – ‘a bush on fire’ – but all three are a treat and a great eye candy. Love the quote too. We’re just back from an surprise visit we paid to friends we hadn’t seen in a while – went with two bottles of bubbly and sat outside, happily remaking the world, enjoying the shade and the sun, such peace and wonderment.

  13. This is beautiful! That orange/yellow/gold dome rising in the background – is that the sun?! If it isn’t I sure want it to be. I love to see the morning through your eyes.
