"Leave no stone unturned. Deeply explore the beauty of your life."

Quote - Neil Gaiman

 

My absence lasted a little longer than expected. Back from vacation, unexpected work on the garden turned out to be possible again....stones from the driveway removed and replaced with gravel for the parking space and borders for new plants.

Hope that now finally a quiet time will come. Happy start of your week ;-))

Mystic Stones near Keswick, Cumbria, now cared for by The National Trust.

In a quiet moment...

 

Feel your oneness with earth and imagine you have roots grounding in the earth,

while your spirit still soars with the breeze into the vastness of the universe.

  

Zen is more of an attitude than a belief.

Zen is the peace that arises through the unity of oneself with a wholeness, a being that is of a different nature than oneself.

Zen means being aware of the oneness of oneself with the world and everything in it.

Zen means living in the present and experiencing it through and through.

Zen means being free from the distractions and deceptive conflicts of the material world.

Zen means being in tune with the universal course of things.

Zen is to fully experience the present and to enjoy the fundamental miracle of life itself.

Dartmoor stone row Merivale

I really like visiting this place and I've been here a few times over the years. I took the drone to get a better (higher) perspective. As you can see it was one of those lovely sunny Winter days after a hard frost the night before. I also made a short video clip which came out pretty nice.

There are actually 4 circles within a few hundred metres of each other but this is the nicest in my opinion. Apparently Oscar Wilde's father (Sir William Robert Wills Wilde FRCSI (March 1815 – 19 April 1876) lived nearby here for 13 years. He had a strong interest in archeology and folklore and was also fascinated by the circles. I wonder was this one his favorite too?

The magical standing stones of Arran

The Hurlers stone circles are a group of 3 stone circles on Bodmin `Moor, Cornwall.

 

The name "Hurlers" derives from a legend, in which men were playing Cornish hurling on a Sunday and were magically transformed into stones as punishment.

"Selenite is an ancient crystal and one of the most powerful for new energy. Its name has its origins in Greek mythology, where the Goddess Selene is associated with the white Moon, a symbol of perfection, purity and benevolence. Many call it: Mirror of the Virgin".

 

MACRO MONDAYS

Theme : "Stone"

   

What to do while waiting for the tide to drop and the sun to set, make a stone sculpture. This one was quite rushed as the sun was setting quickly, but that made it more fun. Made of stone is by The Stone Roses, and seems right. One day , when I've got the time , I'll have to make a really big one .

---------- Satisfaction ----------

I can't get no satisfaction

I can't get no satisfaction

'Cause I try, and I try, and I try, and I try

I can't get no, I can't get no...

At a versatile request of a single lady now exclusively the blooming stone rose. The photo of its bud I posted on monday. Ok ... I would have posted it anyway.

 

Auf vielseitigen Wunsch einer einzelnen Dame hier exklusiv nun die blühenden Steinrosen der Knospe ich am Montag gezeigt habe. Ok ... ich hätte es sowieso gepostet.

A walk up to Staple Tor in yesterday's Dartmoor mist for my daily exercise.

About 40 meters to the left of the ahu Te Pito Kura is a large completely polished oval rock surrounded by a stone wall and four other stones that serve as chairs. Legend has it that the Ariki Hotu Matua’a, the first king of the island, came to Easter Island carrying this huge stone bearing mana (spiritual power granted by the gods).
