Always Keep An Open Eye Around you



It's Thursday infidels and thank God for the British in foiling what could have been another deadly terrorist incident. Evil and hate is incompatible with nature. Delving oneself into the natural world brings peace and tranquility to the soul. So much of human kind has cut the bond to nature that was innate to our species. Human kind tries to fight against nature rather than try to become one with nature. Sadly so many people around the world and even in our own cities have never really seen the natural world. Through nature, one becomes closer to the Creator and only through nature will we be able to survive. All it takes is for mankind to open their eyes.

The above image is of a little Blue Heron in Everglades National Park that I took last winter..

That's all for now folks. Let freedom ring. And for now, some words from the great Ansel:

"Both the grand and the intimate aspects of nature can be revealed in the expressive photograph. Both can stir enduring affirmations and discoveries, and can surely help the spectator in his search for identification with the vast world of natural beauty and the wonder surrounding him." Ansel Adams

That's great news, the British foiling the attack.

Being one, not just with nature, but being one with the world would would certainly help with the stopping of wars. We are all, really, just the same. Nature, today, is about to storm on me so that's all for now.

Nice pic, too.

Yes wonderful work by the Brits!



I am always amazed at my children's friends. We have raised our kids with a healthy respect for nature. They love it. We spend lots of time out in nature, but I swear their friends know nothing about it.

When we take these children with us, the things that scare them always amuse me! I do love to see them learn though! So I continue to take them with us. I hope the little bit of exposure we give them will help them learn about and respect nature for it's beauty and what it gives to our life.

"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature."

Anne Frank
