According to Buddha
One of the ways in which one can counterbalance excessive thinking is contact through nature and the elements. One can develop one’s sense of consciousness by contact with earth, fire, water, space – it’s as simple as that. This will take a lot of the tension and one-sidedness out of one’s metal development, and out of one’s will.
maybe i’m still searchin’ but i don’t know what it means
all the fires of destruction are still burnin’ in my dreams
there’s no water that can wash away this longin’ to come clean
hey yeah yeah

Road to Ya Ha Tinda, Central Alberta, 2019
I really like the way you processed these photos. So dark and moody. Have a great day!
The Lr sliders are always fun…thanks for saying Michael 🤓☺️ have a wonderful day too 🙃🙂
Sometimes while in nature I get lost.
Me too Eddi…stillness ☮️☺️💫
The natural world is definitely a healing force.

Hedy, your stark images sent me in search of knowing more about Ya Ha Tinda, a place with which I was previously unfamilar. Terrific! 🙂
It was the first time for me…it’s a wonderful space…less tourists…feels raw and wild…I’d love to return in the winter…also a fascinating his\herstory…have a wonderful thanksgiving Brett ☺️🤓🙃🙂 smiles Hedy

That’s a good feeling, being tiny in an endless landscape.
I like it too Lynn ☺️🤓
spooky and majestic, the first one.. …two and three, like an unshaved bad guy that you have to ask for trespassing
yes a also see this Markus as Lynn wrote…unshaved…but this is land you can live on without much questioning…some folks live off the grid in these mountains and hills…I really enjoy my time there…I’ll return I think winter ❄️ would be very cool! Thanks kindly for your comments Markus I appreciate them ☺️🙃🙂🙏
Dodecahedral may just be my favourite word notwithstanding lackadaisical
