According to Buddha
Roam in the world as a lion of self-control; see that the frogs of weakness don’t kick you around.
you heard my voice, i came out of the woods by choice
shelter also gave their shade
but in the dark i have no name
so leave that click in my head
and i will remember the words that you said
left a clouded mind and a heavy heart
but i am sure we could see a new start
so when your hopes on fire
but you know your desire
don’t hold a glass over the flame
don’t let your heart grow cold
i will call you by name
i will share your road

all so very splendid, yet the image with the two green lockers (if that is what one should call them) just pops out and won’t let go…i think the green color seems so natural in that particular backdrop, they become not the human-made in the natural world, but part of the natural world (and since humans are natural, there is a certain truth to that if looks at one from a particular angle).
thank you kindly Doug 😀 yes the lockers are Canada Post…rural mailboxes…i like the image you compose here…appreciate your words ~ have a happy day hedy 😀
your day be happy, too 🙂
thank you 🙂 have fun!
A vibrant and beautifully composed set, Hedy. What a fruitful journey.

thank you kindly Michael…appreciate you saying ~ compose a happy day ~ smiles hedy
Such beautiful country and your lovely photos makes me want to move my crossing of Canada up on my bucket list. Oh to find the time to drive the back roads and country lanes, the only way to see and understand a country. To travel off the beaten path and take he road less traveled, my way to roam. Have a wonderful week Hedy.
i will Terry…heading back down in the AM…hoping for alive skies…as the highway is pretty straight…and yes a little off roading is always fun…many smiles 😀 have a happy Monday!
I really like the image with the lockers because they seem not to belong here. Have a great week, Hedy…Cheers
