Upside Down: A photo essay

A friend sent me this quote by Rumi yesterday.

"Try not to resist the changes that come your way. Instead let life live through you. And do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to come?"

Seems quite apropos given the frenetic changes of late... Finding solace embracing natural light, engaging splitter cracks, new sunrises - and spending time with new and old friends...
