for every pulse a thanksgiving



Best of all is it to preserve everything in a pure, still heart, and let there be for every pulse a thanksgiving, and for every breath a song.

-- Konrad von Gesner






Postscript after posting: Although the painter and name of painting show at the top of screen by clicking on the picture, I'm adding this information here so as to not cause confusion. I so much love the Hudson River School of painting and I chose this work by Thomas Moran for this post. The title of the painting is Under Trees (The Autumnal Woods).

    RaccoonLover,
    Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving to you. (Our raccoons are back in the tree but the trellis appears to be serving as protection for the bark.)

    Distracted,
    And Happy TDay to you, too. There's much to be grateful for. Enjoy the day with your family.

    Buddha,
    Your friendship is a blessing to me, too. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

    What a stunning photo. I could lose myself on that path. It reminds me of a painting done by an old master and hanging in a gallery.

    Enjoy Thanksgiving.

    Darlene,
    Your comment made me realize that I should have mentioned the picture. So I wrote a Postscript at the end of the post! I could lose myself in that painting too. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    Little Bird,
    Wonderful to have a comment from you. I hope that your Thanksgiving is just how you want it to be.

    Sharry,
    Thank you for your awesome comments. I wish you, Sam and your family a Happy Thanksgiving.

BEGINNING IN 2014 I will reply to only occasional comments here, while appreciating every visit and all comments! My reason is to enable me to utilize that time to read and comment on your blog posts instead! If/when I get more organized I may later return to replying to comments here, but one of my New Years resolutions is to spend more time at your sites: reading, enjoying, learning! Thank you for understanding.
