Merely by spending the time to observe an object, study its shapes and patterns and the value of its colors, I am celebrating Creation.

We all need something to remind us to be grateful for the good things of this Earth, whether they be the elegant evolution of a grasshopper's hop or just the way an overenthusiastic cat can make us laugh.
