“We humans have talented artist, but how can our paintings compare to your masterpiece of the four seasons? How could we ever paint such a compelling dawn or create a more radiant dust? We have great composers, but how can our music compare to your celestial harmony with the Sun and planets-or to the sound of the rising tide? We have great heroes and heroines who have endured wars, hardship, and dangerous voyages, but how can their bravery compare to your great forbearance and patience…” ~Thich Nhat Hanh, Love Letter to the Earth

Hello Brenda, this is lovely and so vernal. You changed the blog theme, didn’t you? š
Thank you Paula…before your challenge vernal was only known to me as Vernal, Utah. I changed the blog theme as a means to ease my restlessness.
š the darker background will make your great captures stand out better.
Beautiful vernal, and great Thich Nhat Hanh quote! Have a good weekend, Brenda ā¤ and blessings. ~Debbie
