Lately, I’ve been drawn to representations of sunshine. Sunlight to me represents hope, heaven and happiness. A cake decorator at a local bakery created a sun of “hope, heaven and happiness” on cake icing. A landscape photo featuring the sun and a barn signal “hope, heaven and happiness.” “Hope, heaven and happiness”—the promise of these three are worth waking up to.
I tried for days to fulfill my hunt for a monarch butterfly to take a photo of in which to accompany an article I wrote for a magazine. Monarch butterflies are on the decline for various reasons, including diminished habitats, but I searched on. Alas, I didn't get a photo taken before my article deadline, but a few days later, while I was taking a walk near my home, I saw bees and butterflies buzzing around what I describe as a grassy area off the road. Monarchs!!! One obliged just long enough for me to get this picture.
The luna moth my husband and I saw on our side porch screen caused us to conduct research. The research was short, much like the luna moth’s life span. It lives for about a week after it leaves its cocoon as a moth, National Geographic said. The luna moth doesn’t eat. It plays a role in pollination, though. Luna moth – important for something.
