Friday, January 1, 2021, New Year’s Day
The new year began this morning with slowly rising sunshine …

and slowly setting moonlight … both photos taken from outside our sunroom. A super start to a super year!

After breakfast, we took another inspiring walk at the Peace Sanctuary, going our separate ways along the leafy trails for about an hour. I felt so grateful with every step, just being able to bring the blessings of a New England forest into my life by driving 15 minutes from our house! It is, indeed, a sanctuary for Delycia and me, a sacred place that provides the hushed peace the world so badly needs these days.
Here are some scenes from our walk:
the rising sun the Mystic River from the overlook the leaves make a soft trail Here is strength, delicacy, and dignity.
