Twilight

Twilight. The most enchanting time of the day. During the day we belong to the earth, and all the busy comings and goings of our lives. At night we belong to sleep and recovery. But at twilight, we belong to peace, love, rest, and connection - to deep breaths and to togetherness. I love twilight. Here are some scenes from our home, Windy Poplars, during this sacred time of the day.
The dishes are done, the counters are clean

The fire is crackling
The bed is turned down and ready to receive us

Even the creatures feel the peace that twilight brings!
Do you take the time to inhale this sacred time of the day and seize it to reconnect with those you love? To wind down and breathe deeply...from your soul? To allow the world to be quiet, and your heart to be loud? To rest.
