I've read very little Nikko Giovanni--thanks for this. And for the calming ocean sounds.

Love the moving lake:

It's a visual mellow-yellow!

Beautiful quote, and beautiful scene. I have spent a lot of time in my life in breathless anticipation of those perfect snowflakes. Snow brings such beauty to the world, and that unspoiled first snow on the ground is a perfect metaphor for new beginnings. Happy Sunday.

A wonderful life cycle described; thank you!

Offers a hopeful perspective for moving through the non-flowering weeks and months ahead. They will return!
