Signing Off, see you in the Morning. I’ve got to see two doctors in Saratoga (it’s just routine) and will be home in the early afternoon. My food brace seems to be updating.
I want to share this writing from the monk Thich Nhat Hanh. Have a peaceful and restful night.
“There is a tendency to believe that this land is full of misery and we want to go somewhere without any suffering. My definition of the Pure Land, or the Kingdom of God, is not a place where there is no suffering, because suffering and happiness inter-arc. Happiness can only be recognized against the background of suffering.”
I couldn’t stop taking photos of the White Columbine, which Maria picked earlier today. It hypnotized me.
A dreamy flower, loud and delicate at the same time.
If any flower helps me to think calmly and rationally, it is this wildflower and the others around it.
This is a glimpse of flower heaven.
Lots of excitement, lots of dreaming.
Your wildflower photos are lovely…3 years ago I spread wildflower seeds in the front of my porch-each year they have gotten more widespread and lush. Several times throughout the day I go to the window and observe them and, yes, they do help me to think “calmly and rationally” as well.
