Beautiful (as usual)...

The rain drops and rainbow were especially captivating - perhaps because I've also had plenty of chances to make similar photos this summer.

Yes…trust is hard to come by sometimes….had a few challenges this summer that had me stewing….but they all worked out in my favor….would have saved myself some stress if I had remembered to trust 👍🤷‍♀️😂😊❤️

Love your baby bird pictures and the mushrooms and flowers…. Leslie’s sunflowers have been beautiful this summer 🌻🌻🌻🌻

Karen, you are my antidote for the daily noise/news. It means much. Even your post title was enough. Practice trust. Let’s do!

Trust is a hard one. Particularly if at an early age you had yours shattered.

I enjoy every single one of your posts immensely, but today's was much needed and uplifting. Trying to not get dragged into the muck and feelings of hopelessness in a challenging world. I'm a novice bird watcher and in addition to your inspiration about Life, you are teaching me so many cool things about birds! Thank you, Karen!
