hello weasel,
A funny thing happened today as I was driving home. I noticed these small trees with lavender blossoms spread out over a 1/2 mile. About three or four of them interspersed among the bigger green trees. Then I started to recollect how as a youngster I would notice the colors of spring in a profound way. I was always drawn to nature. And even when I was with friends, I was never quite all there much of the time. I find myself starting to enjoy just experiencing 'life' now.
Sometimes living in our own silent world should not be so underrated.
I find joy in being able to 'see' and 'hear' things. Real things. Not the made up conversations because we feel we have to say something kind of things.
Silence is more golden than otherwise believed.
Rock on my friend.
