Woods and rivers- beyond time.

Sand dollar Love.

The sun is out. Tree branches reach out over the river. The water is crystal clear and you can see the fish swimming below. 
Finally, the river is clear. 

The breeze blows and the branches sway. One leaf falls in slow motion and lands in a spiders web. The leaf dangles from that thread. Swirling a few inches above the water. A spider inspects what she has caught in her web.

The breeze blows the leaf free from the web. It lands upon the water, barely making a ripple. The spider is traveling upon the leaf boat moving away from its web. The river's current taking the leaf boat to the ocean.

I wonder, does the spider scream out to her family;  “I will be back when I can.” Does the mother of the spider sense her  sons departure? Life sort of happens like that.

 Unexpected journeys. Changes in the wind.

Lately, life has had it challenges. The virus shutting everything down and police brutality coming to a horrible tragic death. Which is awakening the world.

It is good to be awoke. Now comes the time for transformation and change. 

The trees next to the river help support the banks of the river. The river nourishes the trees. The repeating pattern of the branch is a Y shape. It makes a lovely arch when duplicated. The curvy watery pattern of the river is like a female hour glass shape. 

We are all born. We all come from a mother. And somewhere there is a momma spider calling for her son spider. Wondering where the river has taken him.

Call your momma and check in. Moms love hearing from their babies. And some babies never come home. It is beyond time to make changes.
