The zen of nature

A walk in the woods. Such an ordinary act.

And yet, it is the small details that make it so extraordinary.

It might be a tiny flower nestled among the dew-laden grass like a jewel.

Or diamond-studded webs twinkling like stars in the early morning light.

One stone sitting on top of another transforms them both into works of art.

Further on, I balance stones on top of each other, imagining dreaming towers and soaring spires.

To remind others of the endless possibilities of every day.

A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
