Hi, it’s Edward Grinnan from Guideposts, checking in with you again and sharing these moments of joy I find in these difficult times.

I’m very fortunate and very blessed to get out into the woods almost every day that the weather permits. And it’s out here that I feel so spiritually connected to nature and to creation. It clears my head and it gets rid of a lot of the anxieties that I’m sure all of you are feeling. And I get out with Gracie; we just did Three Mile hill in western Massachusetts, in the Berkshires.

And I guess my moment of joy is the happiness that I can bring to another living creature. And that would be Gracie, who just loves to be out here and is incredibly appreciative. So I will show you Gracie, and she is my moment of joy. Gracie, say hello.
