February 8, 2019 Natasha Comments 9 Comments

Whoever said a January would augur new beginnings, got their facts wrong. It wasn’t written in the stars that every January would come carrying with itself a bouquet full of roses, and leave us enchanted. Or was it?

“Trees are earth’s endless efforts to speak to the listening heaven.” – Rabindranath Tagore Breaking Dawn: #ThursdayTreeLove On an early morning walk, last month in December, we stumbled upon this surreal tree, that stood out lazily; out-stretching its nimble limbs, embracing the dawn in a warm embrace. The view was priceless to say the least. The tree seemed to be subtly communicating with the heavens above, alluring us with its charm on that cold winter morning. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Linking up with the beautiful Tree Lady, Parul, for #ThursdayTreeLove

“He who marvels at the beauty of the world in summer will find equal cause for wonder and admiration in winter.” – John Burroughs In Our Winter Wonderland: #WordlessWednesday I hope you enjoy the glimpses of the winter wonderland in and around my home.
