Fall Weave

Fall Weave

As the season progresses into late fall, it is amazing to watch the colors, textures and forms of nature change everyday. It reminds me that nothing is ever static or frozen and that I must shift and move with nature and never get stuck or frozen.

I have also been thinking allot about mind control. I seem to be moving beyond being careful to remain positive to just telling myself that I do not have the time to be depressed or to entertain morbid or self defeating thoughts.

My walk today was very difficult physically. I got a mile down the path and wanted to turn back just from the pain I felt in my legs, but I knew that it was important for my spirit, my emotions, my mind and my body that I just keep going and complete my 5 mile walk.

Walking in Gratitude

Every day my walks help me to keep my head screwed on straight. I am grateful that I finally decided to get off my ass and start taking care of my mind, my body and my soul. With every step on my walk, I try to remain in an attitude of gratitude. I am a very happy man that my life has changed so much for the better. I encourage all of you to get out and walk as much as you can every day. Do it for yourself. Do it for the universe. Do it for your own peace of mind. Just Do It.

Fall Mandala

Fall Mandala: Infinite Orange

Fall Mandala: Infinite Orange

This mandala was made by using a kaleidoscope effect on a fall leaf that I picked up on my walk yesterday. This was done with Paint Shop Pro. At the bottom of this post, you can see the original leaf that the image was made from.

I am grateful for the beauty of the colors of fall and the ever changing quality of nature. There are surprises out there every day for me if I am willing to pay attention and to be grateful. I am grateful for the scanner which allowed me to photograph the leaf and capture these incredible colors and textures. I am grateful for the art program which allows me to transform these images into another reality. I am grateful for the technology that makes it all possible. I am grateful for the inventors that came up with these incredible tools.

I love this fall mandala and the infinity of space that it symbolizes for me.

Summer to Fall

Summer to Fall

In the past few days a surprising number of the trees along my route I walk every day have turned yellow and it looks like we might just have a very early fall here in the Northeast. The Virginia Creeper is turning bright red already. Maybe these really cool temperatures we have been having at night are getting to the trees. Fall is my favorite time of year and the change is welcome. It is great to see the incredible colors of red, yellow and green return again and I am thankful to watch the seasons slowly change.

I am grateful that I live in a place of such natural beauty here in the Delaware Valley. I am grateful that I live in a place with such a wonderful public recreational resource as our bike and hike path that hugs the bank of the Delaware River. I realise that in many places I would have to use back roads or ask permission of my neighbors to take such long walks every day. I am blessed and I am thankful for where I live.
