Kwan Yin

I planted these flowers back in September, and to be honest I didn't really think they would survive more than a week or two, but here they are, flourishing under the careful watch of Kwan Yin. Most of my life I have hated fall...I was unable to appreciate the beauty of the leaves changing color and falling because all I could think of was the long, bitter winter to come. Living in Albuquerque has taught me an appreciation of the fall...especially since fall here is so mild. Seeing Kwan Yin surrounded by the fallen leaves gives me a little peace of mind that I am unable to conjure myself...Thank Kwan Yin.
