Every once in awhile, nature will remind us of her beauty as
she does with her power.
When it happens, when we see it, we should stop and wonder
with awe and appreciation of a natural splendor. A splendor that reminds us we
are not alone in our oneness.
Last weekend a friend of a friend, Pam Golden of Roanoke,
Virginia, took this photo.
In Shakespeare’s Troilus and Cressida, Ulysses says in the
third act, “One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.”
The Duke in Shakespeare’s As You Like It, says and I have
truncated the Duke’s lengthy speech. “Are not these woods more free from peril
than the envious court?” … here “finds tongues in trees, books in the running
brooks, Sermons in stones and good in everything. I would not change it.”
