Snowy morning

Sunday morning arrived with a light snowfall. The lake outside my door is mostly frozen, and a white dusting of snow is collecting on the ice. It looks very fragile--a reminder of the impermanence of everything.

This morning I am the guest speaker at Unity on Cape Cod. I'll speak about mindfulness, compassion and love. I will also mention gratitude. I am surely grateful for this opportunity. I am also grateful for the snow on the ice on the lake.

Very odd: I wanted to upload a photograph I just took, but I cannot find an option to upload a photo from my computer. Oh well. Imagination works too.

OK, solution found. I looked on line and found a suggestion that I try another browser, and--yes--using Google Chrome instead of Internet Explorer enabled me to upload this photo of snow on Johns Pond. By now (I am updating this Sunday entry on Monday morning), the snow is all gone, and sunshine is reflecting off the clear surface of the pond.

Impermanence: Nothing lasts forever. Everything is constantly changing.
