According to Buddha
Those who allow their minds to ossify are truly dying. To solve the mystery of life you must be born anew every day. This means you must strive daily to improve yourself in some way. Above all, pray for wisdom, because with wisdom everything else comes. Be controlled not by moods, but by wisdom. And with that wisdom, develop creative thinking and activity.
ice age
don’t cry baby
’cause we’ll ride it where it goes
and we’ll dress up for the cold
there’s gonna be nice days
in the ice age

So true. So true, Hedy 🙏
I love the image of the stalk bending in the wind. It’s amazing how so little can say so much. I suppose it is about what we bring to it, too. It’s hard not to a relatedness there–a playfulness of plant and wind in one moment, a clinging in another, a hanging-on… It’s all there somehow. Everything at once, in the simplest things…
Beautiful frames, Hedy.
Michael
ahhhh yes I’ve had this a hanging-on feeling a lot this winter…thank you for your thoughtful and kind words…appreciated hedy ❤ 😀

I was the one hundred and first to like your post. (I am a tad slow) That is the square root of 10201.
I’ve printed your post. (Which is possibly only the second or third time I ever print one)
Nice words and images to… ponder. 🙂
(I am still a ways away from meditating…)
Shall I get there?
Thank you for your thoughts.
May I send you a penny?
😉
just do little meditations…I do mindful walks…and try each day to sit…be still…I also have teachers who guide me…this is also a worthwhile site to check out https://www.gaia.com
I’ve still regaining my ‘stuff’…so all this computer stuff is taking too long and too much time…but now I’ve surrendered ^_^ just finished a yoga class and meditation so I’m staying in the zone for a while today 😀
You’re the second person today to tell me of … how shall i put it? Insight techniques? Maybe the world outside is – turning – so ugly, one needs to turn inside? Hmmm. Food for thought. Merci. Dankje wel Hedy.
being inside can be a wonderful Brian like a cave…being inward is also needed…the world is very loud…I enjoy quiet these days….smiles and heel erg bedankt voor het schrijven en je afvragen … altijd op prijs gesteld 🤓😊☺️
er… “I thank you for the words and your questions”? “Always worth?…?”
😉
hopefully more than a penny 😉 🙂
There’s nothing ossified about your photography, Hedy! You’ve explored another technique with great success – I like this. Another nice day in the white-out ice age! 🙂
humble thank you dear Lynn I appreciate your time to comment and respond very much…smiles from warming etown 😀 ☀️
And by now, maybe cold again! 🙂
