Shadow Shot Sunday 2

Shadows cannot see themselves in the mirror of the sun - Eva Perron.................. Worry gives a small thing a big shadow - Swedish proverb ............................ Take everything that’s bright and beautiful in you and introduce it to the shadow side of yourself… When you are able to say, ‘I am … my shadow as well as my light,’ the shadow’s power is put in service of the good. - Parker J. Palmer........................You can only come to the morning through the shadows. - J.R.R. Tolkien

Morning shadows, Southern California

a hillock of parched grasses
crying out for rain

Man that is born of woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.
- Job 14:1-2, King James Version

May the sunlight and shadows always be with you!
