Look To The Sky

Sometimes in a busy day of work, Goddess sneaks up on you and leaves you breathless. And even a parking lot basks in beauty.

Photographic Lessons


I am feeling somewhat random about this post. There isn't a whole lot that is spiritual happening in my life, but i am trying. This pretty picture of red leaves is a tree living outside the store I work at. One morning while waiting for my associate to arrive I noticed the sun making the leaves light up and took some pictures. The sun in this one was accidental, but made the picture. I don't like my job, but still there is beauty to be found if I am willing to pause and observe.


These gladiolas live in my mother's front yard. Every year they are a red orange, this year they are orange. I've noticed that flowers seem to do that. My mom's hiacynth has pink heads of flowers and purple heads of flowers on one bush.


I've always loved the way clouds look, so I snapped this one. Again while at work.


I do try to do regular religious stuff, particularly morning and night prayers. I keep the altar in a box and set it up. The doily is one I crocheted for Imbolc, it looks very nice on my altar. I have to remember to put it away when I am done, especially since I caught my cat trying to gnaw on Kwan Yin's head the other day. That can't be good.


This spider, whose picture I could only get with the flash (too blurry otherwise) keeps building epic webs ceiling to bush on the front porch. My mom knocks them down, and soon enough there is another. And that spider sits front and center, unafraid and determined to go on the way it thinks things should be. That's resilience, my friends.

Blessed be.
