"I live my life in growing orbits,
Which move out over the things of the world."
Ranier Maria Rilke, The Book of Hours
"Most of all nature is reflected in our capacity for wonder. Nasci. To be born." Richard Louv, Last Child in the Woods
"It is a grand long view. The river and valley, and then coves and blue ridges heaved up and ragged to the limits of eyesight." Charles Frazier, thirteen moons
"A conscientious journal keeper is really the natural historian of his own life." Verlyn Klinkenborg, The Rural Life
" You could build your own life on the observation of it." Charles Frazier, Cold Mountain
"...the view stretched on and on across rows of blue mountains, each paler than the last until the final ranks were indistinguishable from sky. It was as if all the world might be composed of nothing but valley and ridge." Charles Frazier, Cold Mountain
Seems like spring is unraveling nicely there. Very nice image.
