leaves

Leaves stay on the ground for a long time in Texas- no snow to cover them up.
It is a cloudy day today- quiet walk around the neighborhood with Gussy. Walked in these leaves on purpose. It had been awhile since I had done that-- and remembered that I enjoyed this sound...the sound of leaves shifting and being kicked up in to the air. Too bad there was only this narrow patch next to the curb- something about walking through those leaves left me feeling peaceful. Peace comes in such simple ways doesn't it?

Came across this quote today- like it very much.


One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak.
