Playing around with my new iphone macro lens! So much fun! And living in the forest gives me great subjects to photograph up close!

"The wise man does not seek enlightenment, he waits for it. So while I was waiting, it occurred to me that seeking perplexity might be more fun.

. . . After all, enlightenment begins where perplexity ends."

- Terry Pratchett

« Sempre caro mi fu quest'ermo colle

E questa siepe che da tanta parte

De'l ultimo orrizonte il guarde esclude.

Ma sedendo e mirando interminati

Spazi di la da quella, e sovrumani

Silenzi, e profondissima quiete,

Io nel pensier mi fingo, ove per poco

Il cor non si spaura. E come il vento

Odo stormir tra queste piante, io quello

Infinito silenzio a questa voce

Vo comparando; e mi sovvien l'eterno,

E le morte stagioni, e la presente

E viva, e'l suon di lei. Cosi tra questa

Immensita s'annega il pensier mio:

E'l naufragar m'e dolce in questo mare. »

— Giacomo Leopardi, “L’Infinito”

« Always dear to me was this hermit’s hill,

And this hedge that always separates me

From looking at the distant horizon, but

Seated here and lost in an endless meditation

Which discovers a vaster space within,

Boundless silence and deep inner quiet,

My heart is nearly overcome. And like the wind

Murmuring among the leaves to which I compare

Its beating, this infinite silence, this inner voice

So with my mind I encompass an eternity,

And the seasons die, and the present lives

In that sound. And in the middle of all that

Immensity, my thought drowns itself:

Sweet to me, to be shipwrecked in this sea. »

— “The Infinite”, trans. Richard Jackson
