According to Buddha
Environment is stronger than will power. If you want to be spiritual, seek good company and don’t mix with those whose bad habits may wrongly influence you. Be always with people who inspire you; surround yourself with people who lift you up.
oh ya

oh ya
i will sing
for the ice to break
i will sing for the rivers to rise
i will sing for the spring to come
for the spring to come
for the spring to come
i said
for the spring to come
for the spring to come
oh i had a dream
for the spring to come
for the spring to come

Thanks for turning me on to Digging Roots Hedy.

The Buddha knew a lot about behavioral change. Great quote. I love the simplicity of your image. Cheers
it was a magically morning Chris…thank you kindly 😀
Your country has so much empty space! It’s art to make that emptyness visible. Very nice!
endless land…makes me feel very very small 😀 thank you Peter ~ smiles hedy
Good advice from the Buddha–cool song too. Perhaps we need to play every Spring song there is to coax it along!
isn’t a good one…nice feeling and yes that sun is poking out…yes yes…along with some snow showers…but yes Alberta…it is “spinter” time 😀 <3 have a happy day Raven Wolfe 😀
Love these lyrics and your minimalist image, Hedy.
thank you kindly Jane…yes Digging Roots are award winning….i enjoy their music and lyrics too 😀
Will look them up. Appreciate the tip.
Maybe you need to sing louder? 😉 Such a pretty image though, even if it’s cold…the horizon so low, the sky dripping blue so softly, everything waiting….
i lo e that song…it’s stuck in my head now too…yes it’s been fresh very fresh…but so beautiful too…soon i will feel spring 😀 it’s bright and blue here like ‘bluebrightly’ :-D…i look forward to see your compositions and series too…been busy busy…all good and fun! smiles 😀 and thank you kindly for your comments i appreciate them Lynn 😀
Beautiful trilogy there Hedy, precept-image-verse. May blessings tickle your heart m&l
yes M&L i like to work in threes…i like that “blessings tickle your heart”…back at you both ~ have a creative and fun week 😀
“For the spring to come” – and yeah, it’s coming! Snow is still deep in many recesses and on the northern slopes. But today it’s been raining, raining, and it’s raining still. And starlings and lapwings defy the cold and ice and tomorrow the sun shall break through and they shall sit basking in the sun as if they knew all the time.
Ellington

I’ve found the best company when seeking spiritual calm is being mindful deep inside a forest with Nature on my arm.
yes that makes sense Wayne…and shows beautifully in your works…i love that to but also i love urban spaces…and nature to balance…i’m an urban woman 😀
Yes,I have a friend who is the same way.I’ve found I’m way too sensitive to be comfortable in any city.We each gravitate towards our centres.
that’s nice Wayne…smiles from the Atlantic…it’s amazing just so beautiful…i’m so amazed ~~~ have a beautiful day ~ smiles hedy 😀
Nature in all it’s facets always shines beautifully.
you know…i can see…smiles for a beautiful day…i’m in Lisboa…very urban 😀
sounds wonderful Hedy!
you won’t find any of my furry friends down in the cafes sipping wine!
you know Wayne it’s funny watching humans eat/drink…not so cute…i prefer to watch horses or my critters 😉 now it’s coffee time…in an apartment 😀 smiles
Thank you for inspiring us. 🙂
(Et bon voyage)
