Transcendent Wonder

It's fall and it just snowed.

So I had to get up in the dark and shovel the driveway, and the snow was so heavy I finally got out the snow blower.  So there I was feeling sorry for my self.  All this hard work and I just wanted to sleep.

When I got done I came inside and started breakfast for the kids, and decided to do the dishes too.
I was feeling even more angry, depressed, it's dark out, cold, no help...

    I stopped and I looked
    Each drop of water, unique.
    Hands washing plates clean.

All the anger and self pity evaporated.

Transcendent Wonder.

It's all around us all of the time.
