Just sitting here thinking about this beautiful photo that my husband captured through the lens of his camera. This diligent spider had intricately spun his delicate web in our Japanese Maple Tree.
Amazing creatures, these little spiders that stroll around our yard.
Just click on the photos to see how each strand of the web glistens in the sunshine.
Truely breathtaking!
For something so small, they have a huge amount of perseverance.
Strength.
A little blessing for the day. Thank you, Mr. Spider.

That is very good! I have a little booklet about the ant, with very similar thoughts about perseverence...if only some of us had that! Great photo your hubby took...I can actually see that little guy!

Amen, dear Becky, Amen!
We have many of those spiders too. Sometime I will walk through the garden and not even see their web until it is stuck to my face. Yuck!
Stay Cozy, Carrie

Such a sweet post. Thank you for the beautiful words.
it is definitely AMAZING how they can do that so perfectly :)
Life IS full of beauty:>) Thanks for sharing this little miracle. I'm not a big fan of spiders, but you have to admit they make some amazing, delicate webs.
What a neat picture! I don't like spiders but it is fun to watch them weave their webs!
What a wonderful post!
Thank you!
beautiful post!
It's funny how something so common suddenly stops and makes you think! There was a huge web outside my kitchen window and I huffed outside to "swipe it down". Getting ready to strike with the broom, I suddenly got a really good look at the web. The spider was sitting on the web, and the web itself was absolutely perfect! All that work it had done, just to catch its next meal, the poor wee critter. Knowing how much work I put into crafting or decorating my home, I could suddenly relate! (And the only thing that catches food in my home is the the frig!) So, there it stayed with strict instructions to Artie not to swipe it down. He was convinced I was on the verge of a breakdown or something!
Beautiful mother nature. Thanks for the reminder to be always observing and thankful.
Wonderful picture, wonderful quote. Mimi
So true....just be still, look and listen. Amazing the beauty that is right in front of us!
