![]() Apple Orchard, October 2011 On Saturday, I had the great pleasure of going apple picking with family and friends. I was super excited because this is something I've wanted to do for YEARS but hadn't gotten around to. I got an excellent deal for 4 for people (thanks Groupons) to play with the apple cannon (apples stuffed into shoots with compressed air), a hay ride around the orchard, visit to the petting zoo plus a 1/2 peck of apples we picked ourselves! The weather was picture perfect! Crisp and cold Autumn temperatures the smell of burning wood mingled with BBQ and sweetness every thing you'd hope for a Fall festival atmosphere. Our spirits soared as we enjoyed good company and revealed in the glory of nature's beauty all around us. Even with the huge amount of people everyone seemed to be in a great mood. From this vantage point you think all you see are bare trees maybe a few speaks of red: But when you get up close Right underneath you are treated to this: Full on Abundance...just waiting for us to make a little bit of effort to find it. In fact, as we got further off the well trodden path, we were all pretty gobsmacked by the amount of apples clustered on nearly every tree that others had just over looked. My friend (being just as enthralled as I was) took a moment to be philosophical and said Abundance Abounds. ![]() Yep. It's right there, right now just waiting to be acknowledged. And once you do acknowledge it it becomes so much easier to find it again and again. So friends How much of your abundance is waiting for you to make a little bit of effort to see it? Acknowledged the abundance around you right now so you can exercise your sight abundance muscle.

Thanks Antara! Apple season always stirs up the magic in the air; it makes it much easier for me to spot the miracles in the everyday. Moving to Ontario put a bit of a kink in that - the weather turns too cold, too fast - but the noticing remains. I'm looking forward to the new and full moons, as well as Samhain, this month so I can give my full attention and gratitude to all the abundance in my life this year. 4/10/2011 23:50:50
