Growth & New Beginnings

Today, is a memorable occasion. For the first time, I am committing myself to a task that requires daily self-reflection, attention to the little things that make life meaningful, and development of an intimate relationship to the world around me. I am so excited to start this journey to improve my spiritual and mental wellness. The photograph I chose to start my journal is taken in Cathedral Grove. The moss clings to the ancient roots of the giant fallen cedar, thriving from it's still, silent body; does every fallen creature encourage and promote the growth of another living being? Is every failure really a new beginning?
