Apple Blossoms







Yesterday was kind of a hard day and I am not sure why. Maybe I was tired from being up so late at the hospital the night before. I just couldn't get out of my own way. By the end of the day I just had to do something to feel better. I decided to get outside and walk a little bit around my property and check out what was going on in nature. Getting outside always helps me get grounded. I am amazed at what I notice now. Before I started to open spiritually, I would only see the obvious things. Now I notice so much more. As I walked up the back of my field, I looked over at the ancient apple tree that stands at one of my favorite spots in the yard. The tree was covered with white and pinkish blossoms. I stopped in my tracks and just admired this tree. Imagine how many years it has been there growing. I have lived in my home for 23 years and I don't think I have ever seen it like this. The green feild was like a carpet leading to the tree. As I got closer my sinuses filled with the sweet aroma of the blossoms. I could almost taste the sweetness. I walked up to the tree and touched a lower branch pulling it gently to my nose so I could get a good whiif of the blossoms. Wow, this must be what Heaven smells like. I forgot all my worries and negative fellings of the day and just stood there breathing in the lovely scent and breathing out all the negative stuff. After awhile I went into the house to get my camera so I could take pictures to share with you. See if you can close your eyes and breathe in that scent of apple blossoms. Have a lovely day! Anne
