The sky can offer up lovely views...

...and I will share some with you today.

Always amazing to see the effect that a strong wind has on the clouds.

So come and take a short drive with us to the shop and back home, to show you some great views. I don't know the descriptions of the clouds, but you will see that they are forever changing. Cross winds were at play, as usual. The winds can get to crazy speeds here, but we love the wind. It is a free wind, free from all this world's chaos and violence. It is a cleansing wind, bringing in fresh, new air, and as it is now autumn, the winds help the trees to get undressed by blowing their leaves all over the place. It is a wind that blows where it chooses and is not bound by human intervention.

The winds showing us the way to the mountains.

Okay, we say, we are coming.

The photo below is a perfect example of the strong cross winds at play.

Beautiful afternoon silhouettes against a busy and blustery sky.

Time for the geese to go home for the day.

Bye sweet friends, we shout, see you tomorrow.

High cold winds, and the wind is stripping the cloud with reed-like waves.

Oh yes, that is a restlessness that we don't understand, but not chaotic like us down here on earth.

Come beautiful rains, we whisper, pour down your calming drops.

Humans change, destroy, pollute, and abuse everything around them. They mess up the water, damage the soils, pollute the air, eliminate vegetation and trees, abuse the animals, and hurt the very delicate biomes and ecosystems. Humans will even try to change the moon and Mars to try to create habitation there. But guess what, humanity cannot catch the wind. They cannot stop it, they cannot divert it, and they don't even really understand it. The wind is at the command of its Creator and Commander in Chief, and humanity do not know where it blows and where it comes from. These mysteries are kept from mankind, and this is a big relief. Humanity will only, for a time, be able to hurt nature and aspects of this life here on earth, but it cannot control the wind. How great is that?
We wait for the day when everything will be renewed, restored, and revived. Till then, we know that there is One who sees everything that humanity does. We cannot hide or destroy forever.
May our days be filled with productive, life-giving activities.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures and the story.
