Those who dwell among

the beauties and mysteries

of the earth are never 

alone or weary of life.

Weekend Zen, June 17-18

Those who contemplate the beauty 

of the earth find reserves of strength 

that will endure as long as life lasts. 

There is something infinitely healing 

in the repeated refrains of nature –– 

the assurance that dawn comes 

after night, and spring after winter.

~ Rachel Carson

Weekend Zen, May 28-29

There is symbolic as well as actual 

beauty in the migration of the birds,

bud ready for the spring. There is something 

infinitely healing in the repeated refrains

 of nature –– the assurance that dawn comes 

after night, and spring after the winter.

~ Rachel Carson

One way to open your eyes
