Looking Up!

Yesterday afternoon I had such a burst of energy. I went outside and the sun was shining and it was just the right temperature. I thought I would do some gardening but I saw my husband riding the mower and mowing the lawn and thought, "I should try that" and I did. My husband showed me how to work it and I was off. I felt a little shaky at first because there were some dips and things but after I did it for ahwile I felt more confident. I smelled the fresh air and felt the breeze blowing in my face. I truly enjoyed the experience. When I was finished mowing I walked my labyrinth with a bit of a spring in my step. I got to the center and for some reason as I was standing there I looked up. Such a beautiful sight like looking at different dimensions. Looking through the pear tree and then the willow tree and finally the sky. I realized that I spend so much time looking down not wanting to trip over anything. Being so careful makes me miss out on the beauty around me. Maybe I should just trust that I will not trip and fall and even if I do, I can pick myself back up and continue on my way. Isn't that what I am doing right now?
After supper I went for a walk with my little dog Zeke. Instead of watching the ground before me I spent much of the time looking up. I saw such beauty and I did not trip. From now on I will try my best to trust that God will keep me walking and if I fall He will send the angels to help lift me up so I can continue to travel my path. Love and Light Anne
