Being still...


The more often we see the things around us - 
even the beautiful and wonderful things - 
the more they become invisible to us. 

That is why we often take for granted 
the beauty of this world: 
the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds - 
even those we love. 

Because we see things so often, 
we see them less and less. 

(Joseph B. Wirthlin)

    A very nice post, and a sweet bird to go with it. It's nice that you appreciate nature so much. It's one of my favorite places to be. : )
