Waves at the ocean's edge, of course, but the last place I expected to see them was on Little Clemons' Pond! I am beginning to get use to this sensation...this expecting to see the unexpected...like the amazing clouds from yesterday's post.
Here at the pond, each day, each hour of each day, in fact, is a totally different and unique experience. If I go expecting to see one thing I invariably see something else. The pond never fails to surprise and delight me.
I've always said that it is best to dispense with expectations. They often inhibit what you are able to see. But I might alter that to say, have no expectations beyond the unexpected. Don't be surprise when it appears...embrace it as yet another gift from the landscape.

Nearly all the best things that came to me in life have
been unexpected, unplanned by me.
