    The start of each day

    One of the things that I value in retirement is the ability to "see" the world around me. I used to eat breakfast in a restaurant without a view of the the world beyond. Now I begin my day looking out vast windows----and my "new" world beyond.

    I say my morning prayers with my eyes open, looking at the day the Lord has made and giving thanks for that. Prior to beginning, I check the weather in Kyiv. That helps keep me in touch with all those in Ukraine who I pray for.

    As a side note: The media has made much of the "brutal" Ukrainian winter. At least this year, it is very similar to PA.

    Below is this morning's meditative venue.

    I like the contrast between the deciduous and evergreen plants.
