649. being still with what is

on this chilly morn
a little orange lizard
so one with the sun 🦊❤️

I was watching this beautiful orange lizard sunning itself on the side of the road.  It was lit up like a Japanese lantern. In its shadow that was cast on the gravel, I could see its heart beating a mile a minute.  As much as I wanted to protect it by scooting it off the road’s edge… I didn’t. Life is full of decisions like that. 🦊❤️
