According to Buddha
Peace is the enjoyment of life, activity is the expression of life. A balance between the activity of the west and the calmness of the east is needed.
heading for home you start to roam then you’re in town
everybody knows there’s nothing doing
everything is closed it’s like a ruin
everyone you see is half asleep
and you’re on your own you’re in the street
good morning, good morning

sometimes it’s hard to keep up when everything around you has stopped moving.
a little thought here, a little thought there, here a thought, there a thought.

These are beautiful photos! Philosophy is great also.
thank you Windmills of My Mind…ahhhh yes i enjoy to read bits and pieces of Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda…not sure if he was a Buddhist or a holy man…now that was mentioned to me by Neirodrooling…but that’s my sloppy…i just liked those words with what i was feeling at that moment 😀 compose a beautiful day and thank you kindly for your comments. ~ smiles hedy 😀

Good morning! Beautiful landscapes.
yes i love to watch the river open up again…it was a beautiful morning ALex…have a beautiful day ~ smiles hedy 😀 <3
Good morning, good morning, yes a wonderful song I have listened to since it came out. It is a shame the video is blocked. Such wonderful photos that actually made me feel the brisk air.
If we can only balance east and west we would be in a much happier place. I know I would be happier.
Have a great day Hedy.
well here is a rare version of Good Morning…maybe it opens….https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LES8jMRYKJw
have a wonderful day Terry from foggy etown…now we have delicious sunshine…smiles hedy 😀
Ooh–gorgeous pics–love the contrast of cool and warm tones! It’s such an interesting time of year–different every day.
The quote is perfect–I think peace can be found in outdoor activity–or outdoor stillness. I remember a quote from Mary Shaffer Warren, (when she explored the Rocky Mountains in the early 1900s)…”I’m just a hunter of peace…and I’ve found it.” I often feel the same when I am out in nature. So happy Spring is here! <3
<3 me too…ready for some green and softer winds…my mother bought me that book 'No Ordinary Woman'…she also loved the Rocky mountains as a painter…and i also love seasonal rhythms…i'll revisit that book Raven Wolfe…appreciated 😀 compose a beautiful day <3

You’ve captured beautifully here the twilight of a season. (He writes in blatant anticipation of spring.) I loved the little tufts of green hidden beside the frozen footprint, and the light through bare trees. These images remind me of the fullness of emptiness.
Peace
Michael
