Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life.

Mmm, I have always had a thing for moss -- the texture, the softness. Lovely.

Lovely views, dear friend.

thank you so very much for the beautiful reminder.
