The reward
“The reward for breathing is not applause but air, and the reward for climbing is not a promotion but new sight, and the reward for kindness is not being seen as kind, but the electricity of giving that keeps us alive….The reward for uncovering the truth is the experience of honest being. The reward for understanding is the peace of knowing.” ~Mark Nepo, The Book of Awakening

Love this photo Cindy. Very nicely done. A very serene spot. Was this taken in St. Joe? Like how there is a mist in the background.

Things that make me happy
Thank you, Rick. Yes, this photo was taken at our Wright house in St. Joe in the fall. It's one of my favorite spots for viewing the river, below, which doesn't show in the photo.
