A photographic reflection from Amy Boyd
I was planning to write something for today's reflection, but words are failing me at the moment, cluttering my head, feeling like noise. So instead, I bring you photographs I have taken of little things during my moments of attention to the natural world over the past year. What will you see when you turn your attention to something outside the human realm? What does it have to teach you?
I suppose that’s the way we humans are, thinking too much and listening too little. Paying attention acknowledges that we have something to learn from intelligences other than our own. Listening, standing witness, creates an openness to the world in which the boundaries between us can dissolve in a raindrop. The drop swells on the tip of a cedar and I catch it on my tongue like a blessing.
