I would love to sit down against that tree with my knitting and a big mug of tea and stay there for hours. Thank you Clara.💖😌 Here is something else to quietly listen to(if you use the bar at bottom of screen to scroll backward you can see the whole sunrise)

Oh fascinating! I hadn't seen that publication. But also, on behalf of those of us who didn't realize an algorithm would shove pop-ups in your face, I apologize.

That wobble tree has much to tell us! She has made it through many things and we can see her triumph right in front of us. She has much to tell us about surviving through tough and sometimes inexplicable times. Thanks for this image and quote Clara. We have much to listen to

She has experienced many, many storms.

Trees are great listeners, and, if we are patient and careful listeners ourselves, they will speak to us.

Oh, I adore Gladys’ sentiments. Those sounds of nature are balm for my soul. Just this morning I could hear the staccato calls of the black-capped chickadees in the patch of woods next to me. Their small bodies barreling between the tree branches, as they attend to their lives. Thank you, Clara!

Chickadees are so cheery, I love them.

Nature stands strong, not yielding to the “wobbling” of the people. We can draw strength from the flora and fauna.

This is a picture of serenity. The wobble tree looks wise. Plus a quote from Gladys Taber! This is going to be a good day said Pooh!
