Kristin, this is a such beautiful reflection on finding brightness and light and, ultimately, hope in stormy times. 💛 Thank you for sharing.

Lovely insight into the unpredictability of nature. My impression every time I work in New Orleans (or Louisiana) is that it fractures with each storm, then the vines and growth swallow it up, kind of preserving the state of loss. It's both sad and beautiful. Fitting for its jazz. ~Post some of those gorgeous peonies when they burst. I love them.
