Woke up this morning to a spectacular Harvest Moon setting over San Francisco. Deb took this picture:
At around the same time, my dear friend Paul landed in Kathmandu, where he is about to spend his fall semester sabbatical with his beautiful wife and three daughters. This is his post:
Spectacular flight into Kathmandu, with snowy peaks rising above the clouds… Kids bouncing off the walls with excitement! 8 long years away, but we’ve finally returned “home” to Nepal! Glowing pink sunset walk around the great Boudanath stupa, then a delicious roof-top meal, watching the full moon rise above strings… of prayer flags… I’ve wept several times today… We feel so blessed and grateful to be here!
Check out the awesome blog about their journey.
Life is magical, it really is. Sometimes all we have to do is look up in the sky.
Looking up in to the sky or down at our feet. Life is about keeping our eyes open to all that surrounds us. And it helps to wake up early, too!
Thanks for the full-moon picture and for sharing your friend’s words with us. What a wonderful man and father he must be. Next time around, I’m going to ask for a dad like him!
