Painted sky



This morning I stood at my back door and watched the sky for a good ten minutes, breathing-in the cold air.

I didn’t know until later on that the ribbons of pink and green I was looking at were Polar Stratospheric Clouds (PSCs; also known as nacreous clouds), but the sky has been shimmering all day, and it has been beautiful.

Note to self: most days don’t begin with nacreous clouds, but more days should begin with pausing to receive the gift of beauty, with gratitude.
