Today begins with the bliss of not having to choose between two things I love to do.

And, so, my walk begins before dawn when I witness a dragon sun - potent and rising in a flaming exhale of sky.

Yet, didn't see the dragon, consciously, until a friend who saw this picture pointed her out to me.

Now, as I reflect on this experience, I'm humbled by her majesty, and I feel wildly lucky to have had a sighting of this mythical, dynamic, beast –to have awakened to walk in her awesome presence this Sunday morning. What it means, I will wonder about for some time. 

And what, I wonder, might this sunrise dragon in a breath- of-fire dawn sky teach me to say?
