According to Buddha
In time you will surely behold the inner light, for it is ever there, shining in your forehead. Just as all human beings have eyes, so does everyone have this spiritual eye within his forehead. It awaits only his discovery in deep concentration within.
without going out of your door,
you can know all things on earth
without looking out of your window,
you can know the ways of heaven.
the farther one travels
the less one knows
the less one really knows.

Chiado district ~ Lisbon, Portugal ~ April 2016
Wonderful pictures! I want to go back to Portugal now 🙂
Oh me too ☺ such beauty and wonderful people…I’d rerun in a heartbeat ☺ thanks kindly Peter ~ compose a beautiful day ~ smiles hedy
Love the 2nd and 5th photos so whimsical. We hope we can find enlightenment during our search, I hope it does come to me long before my last breath is taken. It is a long perilous journey to inner peace we must trek. Wonderful day to you Hedy.
Ahhhh yes riding the waves…not sure enlightenment happens here…working towards some bliss perhaps ☺🤓 have a fun weekend Terry always appreciate you comments! 😀
What a great set of Portuguese street photos Hedy. Really nice. It makes me want to skip school tomorrow and go out and make photos ( but I will be good and do my work). I hope you’re having a good time in cow town. Cheers!
I enjoy the streets of Lisbon…as I’ve revisited images I captured…time for a new adventure ☺ and yes cowtown has lots of stories unfolding…now back in windy etown 😳 busy week! Enjoy your courses soon you’ll be teaching somewhere exciting I’m sure!
It sounds like you had a good time this week. Im always up for new adventures. I have about another six months of classes before I graduate. Yahoo!

Wonderful street photography, Hedy. I love your opener. The collection really celebrates your keen eye.
Thank you kindly Jane ☺ appreciate you saying ☺
I like when we glance through the door, and look away, for an instant, from what we always thought.
Peace
Michael
And for that instant we may not even know… and not knowing is a nice thought too… have a happy day Michael! Om hedy 😊🙄😉
“The farther one travels/ the less one knows” —> such a powerful and deep statement…. I loved both the photographs & your words, dear Hedy… Much love! :star:
i think many people have said these words…they do hold true for me…thank you kindly Aquileana for you lovely words…sending you kindness and much <3 for a beautiful week <3
