My amazing day began as I lay down on the freshly mown lawn. The sky barely visible behind the clouds. They had majestically hovered over the most beautiful fall leaves hanging tight onto the trees.

I chose to lay below the red, orange, and yellow leafed tree. All my thoughts of worldly problems disappeared. I contemplated counting each of the leaves as a means of meditation. It turned out to not be necessary. Each leaf represented a gratitude of my life. There were to many to count because I, like all humans, am blessed beyond my understanding.
