Friday...August 28th an amazing beautiful moon.
Saturday ...August 29th an amazing beautiful sunset.
Sunday ...August 30th ...I was feeling a little blue and brought myself to a local garden center to cheer me up.  Walking through a field of perennials, suddenly a mass of at least 20 extra large beautiful, colorful butterflies came out from somewhere and surrounded me while I stood in shock watching them fly around me, until I was the one to walk away.  I believe it was a sign and embraced such a magical moment.  My eyes were on the butterflies, I did not realize I had an audience with me, embracing the beauty as well.
How grateful I was to share that moment with strangers and grateful that I forgot I was feeling weepy earlier in the day.
Marsha ...
Happy September 🌻
