CALM

There are many things that calm me, bathe after a day of work, sit on the sofa with my partner or walking my dog​​. But the greater sense of calm comes when I feel I'm on the right path and when events that are happening in my life, will overlap with each other continuously, without pause. 

I learned that part of that "calm" is hidden behind the "knowledge" in the "acceptance" and "non-resistance". 

"I am the carrier of my own calm"

Much love to you all.

LIGHT

"Stop overshadow your own light, you can do it and only you have the power to choose when and how. Don't be afraid to go deep within, that place where the truth is hiding."

I AM GRATEFUL FOR...

I am grateful for being alive and being aware of who I am. 

I am grateful to be able to feel everything, both good and bad. 

I am grateful for having come to where I am. 

I am grateful to have the family I have.

I am grateful for my job. 

I am grateful to feel the sun in the morning as well as by the freshness and peace that it brings the night. 

I am grateful for being able to hear the singing of birds and the murmur of water in a fountain. 

I am grateful for being able to smell the fragrance of the pines. 

I am grateful for the food that nature provides us. 

I am grateful for having seen and visited wonderful places. 

I am grateful for being able to say I love you out loud. 

I am grateful for being able to help anyone in need.

I am grateful for share with you these simple but heartfelt words.

SHADOWS

The contrast is what gives beauty to the photo, alternating light and shadow, the same goes with life.

 Like it or not, we are always walking between light and shadow, that's what makes us appreciate the good things in life and appreciate what we have. The nice thing is that in the end, Let us go walk in shadows or hopping into the light, there is always a perfect balance, because the shadow always increases proportionally with light. 

-Love to you all-

AUTUMN LEAVES

“Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;

Lengthen night and shorten day;

Every leaf speaks bliss to me

Fluttering from the autumn tree.

I shall smile when wreaths of snow

Blossom where the rose should grow;

I shall sing when night’s decay

Ushers in a dreary day."

Emily Brontë, Bronte: Poems

THIS LIFE IS YOURS

(Moss growing slowly in one of my pots)

“This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.”

ANOTHER CYCLE, ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE

The picture belong to a Nepenthes x Ventrata

I died a mineral, and became a plant. I died a plant and rose an animal. I died an animal and I was man. Why should I fear When was I less by dying.
