Photo-Heart Connection: April

I seem to have a deep connection to the sky and to water

two elements that attract my attention so often.

The sky is the air that I breathe 

and with each deep breath,

my thoughts disappear and are carried away

like clouds floating away out of my line of vision

and I am left

in a blissful state of

beingness.

So totally in the moment

that time stands still.

Nothing else exists

but that moment.

Water has many moods according to the wind and the seasons.

The calm water in this picture reminds me to go with the flow of life

to be inspired by the stillness

to observe the reflections

and to let go of the mind.

As I observed this scene, my attention was drawn to a small island

on the far side of this large pond

where some light green reeds were growing 

and I couldn't not include what I saw here

I will show you

and I feel you may agree!

Mother duck was taking her babies for a swim and was heading

for an island in the water to take them to safety.

I zoomed in on the little family

and here they all are swimming in the glorious green reflection of the reeds.

 A heart-connection indeed for the very end of this month of April.
