Blue/Gray

I’ve been feeling a little blue this week. And the skies are gray, which if you know me at all you know doesn’t help my mood! But the pelicans have been helpful. They are a joy to watch.

Sometimes they fly high, as these guys yesterday. And other times they fly low over the waves, so close sometimes it seems they will be tumbled in the breakers.

I feel I’m skimming the water this week, watching the breakers and hoping I won’t get caught. I’m watching for the waves to rise beneath me, hoping for an air current to carry me out of danger. And so my prayer is for strength to keep my wings spread and trust that soon I will be soaring high again, lifted by forces that are unseen but so real. Love, hope, faith.
