“Love makes you see a place differently,
just as you hold differently an object
that belongs to someone you love.
If you know one landscape well,
you will look at all other landscapes differently.
And if you learn to love one place,
sometimes you can also learn to love another.”

“Where you come from is gone,
where you thought you were going to was never there,
and where you are is no good
unless you can get away from it.
Where is there a place for you to be?
No place… Nothing outside you can give you any place…
In yourself right now is all the place you’ve got.”

So calm! Well done.
Thank you! And thank you for visiting Forest Garden. This spot remains absolutely silent in the evening, save for the calls of birds or the occasional boat on the creek.
Lovely scenes, I esp. like the white dogwood floating in the forest!
Thank you, Eliza- that one is my favorite, too 😉 So pretty here now. Believe it or not, the Wisteria has bloomed since Thursday! A lovely drive today across the state enjoying Dogwood, Wisteria, Redbud, and Azaleas. Thank you for visiting! WG
Must have been breathtaking! Spring is the best!
Flannery O’Conner is one of my faves.
😉 A wise soul…..
