"A teu lado me deitei. A ria ofereceu-me um espelho perfeito em todas as dimensões, e para onde quer que me voltasse o brilho do teu olhar me iluminava e seduzia. Neste mundo velho e cinzento a tua cor renovou a minha existência em garridos tons que assim me permitiram sorrir-te em cada hora minha que é tua também.
Ficaste. E assim no calor do dia e na frescura da noite a pureza do teu ser me alimentou de constante felicidade. O céu encheu-se de azul e o horizonte de luz. O tempo deu lugar à esperança que indo-se embora ficou. Como assim ficou a beleza da tua imagem de azul-celeste que eu retive, e retendo-te amei… Amei até ao infinito como amo hoje e amarei. Fineza mais fina, pureza mais pura, prazer mais intenso, intensidade de viver. E vivendo em ti morri porque morrendo na tristeza ressuscitei na mais desejada felicidade.

Shot on the same day and the previous image. On our way back to our camp. So much smoke from forest fires.
You can see a few trout rising (the rings on the water surface)

I have gone past this old house on the Molson Chesaw Road many times in my Washington State adventures, but it never really stood out to me. Normally, this area of the Okanogan Highlands is very dry and brown. A few days ago, I once again was in the area and the old house looked different, maybe it was the angry clouds or the tall green grass that drew me in to stopping. I parked and walked up and down the road as I took a few shots from different angles. I settled on this shot as I think it conveys more of the mood I was looking for.

TRANQUILLITÉ
Un silence profond, abyssal succéda à la furieuse tempête de neige qui avait foudroyé la vallée de la rivière, la forêt environnante et notre modeste cabane grinçante.
Ce silence aussi soudain qu’étrange calma mon esprit, comme s’il avait été sous l’emprise d’une Magicienne, d’une Enchanteresse. Une tranquillité absolue qui m’imposa un moment de recueillement, improbable autrement. En moi, une sensation s’imposait de plus en plus nettement: celle de ce lien indicible qui nous unit, nous les êtres vivants, à notre planète, à nos origines, à l’Univers…
…dans un silence profond.

STILLNESS
A deep, abyssal silence followed the furious snowstorm that had struck down the river valley, the surrounding forest and our modest creaking cabin.
This sudden and strange silence calmed my mind, as if it had been under the influence of a Magician, an Enchantress. An absolute tranquility that imposed on me a moment of contemplation, improbable otherwise. In me, a feeling imposed itself more and more clearly: that of this unspeakable bond which unites us, us the living beings, with our planet, with our origins, with the Universe…
…in deep silence.

“Seek out a tree and let it teach you stillness.”
― Eckhart Tolle ―
Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and just listen. No more is needed. Being still, looking, and listening activates the non-conceptual intelligence within you. Let stillness direct your words and actions.

The river moved fast and the clouds overhead were changing swiftly but for me the moment was still.
Holy smokes - I look at this after the Monday morning rush and start of the week and I want to go back! I'll close my eyes and dream....for now! :-)
Happy new week all! Hope it is filled with good thoughts and calm waters.
And time yet for a hundred indecisions,
And for a hundred visions and revisions... T.S. Eliot
Probably my only post for this week. Busy, busy, busy. Have a great week!
While it seems to me that it is getting cooler and the days shorter, it is summer as usual here. The beach is still busy.
We get knocked down but we are not destroyed.

which is my work,
which is mostly standing still and learning to be astonished."
