Beauty
The word of the week is beauty. Driving from Forestville to St. Helena, a memory detonated in my mind like a firework display that makes me giggle and ooh and aah. My father’s words echoed through times past as I heard him say, “Look around kids and take it in…you live in one of the most beautiful places on earth.” (We were born and raised in St. Helena in the famed Napa Valley).
It is Fall in Northern California, and although not the east coast Fall that is routinely immortalized in photos, it is breath-takingly beautiful! I give thanks everyday for the glorious beauty that surrounds me, that inspires me, that comforts my soul.
This week I invite you to savor the beauty that surrounds you in all its forms, especially as we move into the fullness of the season of Thanksgiving.
