This afternoon a rather robust cold front came over after we have had days and days of lovely warm to hot weather....but the garden and fields were definitely starting to show for the heat without water.....so the heavens have opened up obligingly and we are now been well and truly soaked!! I feel blessed, thank you.
The Challenge is to Change the Focus
I've done quite a bit of reading over the years, and listening too, to people who seem to have had a bit of a handle on life. They may not have the 'answers', but they do have some wise words and have imparted to many, a profound kind of thinking about how we look at our lives - not just the years lived, or the months, or days, but each minute.
I was moved in recent days by reading about 'gratitude' and the practice of it. The benefits seem to be very real.
So, as part of being reflective and taking an active role in where our journey is taking us, I've started this project.
My aim is to regularly take a photo of something for which I am grateful, and reflect on that. They may be small gratitudes, or bigger picture ones.
I'd love to see your stories too! Feel free to comment and share your contributions.

Soothing Sound of Rain on an Iron Roof
There is something quitessentialy Australian about the sound.
