Night and Day by olivetreeann

Night and Day

I've often been fascinated with the Hebrew concept of time. The day begins at sundown, rather than sun up. A time of rest prepares one for the day, rather than resting after the day's activities. Spring follows winter, and the harvest follows the "lazy, hazy days of summer". It's similar to filling up the gas tank before you head out on a long trip. If I find I can arrange my personal time this way, I'm twice as productive. It seems God has set a pattern, not only in nature by way of the seasons, but in time with the rising and setting of the sun as well. Night and day have a rhythm which brings beauty to my life.
Great black and white

A good thought for the day! And I love the picture that illustrates it.

@kerristephens @jmj @mrssmith @kezzam @digitalrn Thank you so much Kerri for all your faithful encouragement! Thanks Jennifer- it's a good thought for me to remember as well! Thanks Mrs. Smith- it sounds funny to say it, but some routine is good. Thanks Kerry- I'm enjoying some of the creativity I can have with Picnik- but I don't want to get into a habit with it. I felt this particular picture really leant itself to the contrasting b&w modes, side by side. Thanks Rick- I think about this quite often- mostly when I realize I've put too much on my plate and need to scale back. Thanks again to all of you!!

Marked this a fav, not only because of the arresting composition of your photos but the wisdom of your commentary. Anytime I come upon new thoughts I am happy. I will keep this shift in thinking in mind as I go about my day (and night!)
