2011 July

As the summer deepens people make time for enjoyment. For me pleasure comes from visiting new places. Pitching up in various places with my caravan, enjoying new views and nature at its best, admiring the creations of man over the centuries in the form of châteaus, great gardens  and historic towns, taking life at a more steady pace and stopping to notice what surrounds me.  I am reminded how even a small change can reap big benefits.

So pause awhile; we all need time to reflect, to truly value things in our life and appreciate them. So sit on a quiet beach or in a  beautiful garden and muse without distraction.

QUOTE

The hardest thing is to see what is in front of your eyes.

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

All seasons hold a beauty of their own.

Summer seems to say “look at  me , look how invincible I am, look at me shine “, the result of nature in action. Never underestimate your potential or discount your ability, believe in yourself.
