I took Benedict for a walk tonight at about 10 pm. He's a Boston Terrier I'm dogsitting.
As we were out walking and I'm talking to him like he's a person, we happened upon the most
beautiful shadow of a leaf-filled branch of a tree. Even though it was a shadow produced by artificial light, it was so intricate and precise. I had to sit down on the sidewalk and just stare at it--take it in. I found myself saying to Benedict, "I wish you could see this. I wish you could understand the beauty of this shadow in front of us!" And then I found myself wondering what kinds of beauty he experiences that I don't see. I wonder what kind of relationship he has with our mutual Creator.
