So many days - I wake and think - I've been here....I've done this...I've seen it all.
So many days - I promise myself - there's nothing.
Nothing more. Nothing new. Nothing to say or add.

And then - I stumble upon a scene like this.
So extraordinary...and so much the same.

Just these two.

He - strutting so tall and proud.
She - beaming and smiling...gazing so lovingly up at him.

More colorful newlyweds - I've never seen.

Again - I'm reminded of the prize in the process.
The magic in the practice.
The power in showing up...without expecting.
Beginning - always - with a beginner's mind.
