Even If Something Is Left Undone, Everyone Must Take Time To Sit Still And Watch The Leaves Turn.  Elizabeth

We stopped at a view point in the hills to admire the view, and this sheep came strolling towards me.  I had the chance to create heart-warming images.

Even in the heart of a city there can be a place of calm. Doors shut and curtains closed, a light against the dark, wrapped round in dear, accustomed things we can withdraw and find ourselves again.

Pam Brown, B. 1928

There is no calm like a quiet sea a space of stillness under the width of sky. A gently shifting flow of shadow. A silvering. A breathing silence that restores the heart.

Pam Brown 1928

The Beach

Photos of the beach, I’m embracing summer memories on the beach.

Breathe, drink, taste... Live in each season as it passes: Breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.

Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)

Always we hope someone else has the answer.  Some other place will be better, some other time it will all turn out well.  This is it.  No one else has the answer.  No other place will be better, and it has already turned out.  At the centre of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want

Lao Tzu, From  “Tao Te Ching”

Chateau de la Ferte Saint-Aubin  Part 3 The Bathroom And  Countess O'Gorman's Bedroom  The paneling, floor and chimneys date back to Louis XV.  The room was originally that of Marshal Lowendal, before Countess Sixte O'Gorman used it in the early 20th century.  It has a small inlaid bookcase in the Louis XV style containing rare 18th century books.  There is a beautiful bed from the time of Louis XV.

Even if something is left undone, everyone must take time to sit still and watch the leaves turn.  Elizabeth Lawrence
