::: things that speak to me...


{transposed garage & garden. diana camera}





"i'm finding my peace. and forgiving myself for those things i've never done."

I look; morning to night I am never done with looking.

Looking I mean not just standing around, but standing around

as though with your arms open.

And thinking: maybe something will come, some

shining coil of wind,

or a few leaves from any old tree—

they are all in this too.

  5. Lovely! Countless times I've read poems or quotes, fallen in love with them, and then learned they were written by Mary Oliver. I can't get enough of her work. Thank you for sharing!

  6. These are all such lovely things. Honored to have our video be a part of them. Must remember the line "forgiving myself for those things I've never done."
