It teaches us to embrace life's fleeting moments with grace and resilience. A spiderweb glistens with dewdrops in Glacier National Park, capturing our attention with its delicate intricacy. Like threads connecting each droplet, fragility intertwines all living beings within our interconnected ecosystem.
