Have you ever looked up and noticed the life in a Tree?  It’s so wonderful to see the sun shining down upon the green leaves.  It never fails to happen . . . when I look up into those leaves . . . really look. . .  and breath . . . and become present in the moment as I look  . . . a gentle breeze comes forth and THOSE leaves begin to move.   It’s like the leaves are waving to me  . .  maybe even applauding.  At that VERY moment, I know that I am NOT alone.  My heart fills with love and peace.   I thank the Lord for being by my side and loving me . . .  even with all of my faults.
