Observing Nature 02/09/2011

Little Rabbit on My Trail

I found this little guy on my trail yesterday morning, Feb. 9, 2011 at 10:00 am. At the time I was carefully listening and observing Creation while stretching my legs and getting a little exercise.

For some reason that I can’t explain, I am always thrilled to be near wildlife. I first noticed this little guy scurrying around some bushes near the western Damon-Garcia Sports Field. The find prompted a short hike off the sidewalk and up a small hill. I was hoping to find the little rabbit, but mostly I wanted to see the view from the top.

The first image is looking East toward Islay Hill near my home.

The second image is looking West from the sidewalk, toward the place where I first noticed the little rabbit.

Two more images concluded my time on the hill.

Then sitting quietly for a few minutes, resting in the Presence of Creation, I heard Creation speaking to me. My spiritual senses revealed a glimpse of the Creator’s excitement and glee with his Universe. Maybe that is why I also love it so much?

Prayers for My Trip to Maui

Following Mass at the Monastery of the Risen Christ, on Sunday 10/03/2010, I informed Abbot David of my upcoming trip to Maui, Hawaii. I’m leaving home on Thursday 10/07/2010 and flying from LAX to Maui on Friday 10/08/2010 and returning on Friday 10/15/2010. I asked for his blessing and prayers for the journey and a safe return. The prayers were attended by Brother Alphonso, Brother Michael, Father Stephen, Father Albert, and Connie Mayrhofer.
