Okay, in my mind I am sitting in that white chair in a field of lavender. Sigh...

I adored the photo walk. That sea of lavender is a gorgeous shot with interesting perspective. (It's one of my favorite colors). I'm also intrigued by tree bark. Loved them all! (my link is below because my google account is not connected to a blog.)

Everything we see is a reflection of our self unless we truly love the object of our attention. Then we can attune to a new point of view.

The lavenders are so beautiful. It must be heavenly to take a walk.

Especially lovely pictures tonight and a theme of sensuality. I am glad you mentioned Anais Nin, such an interesting life and acc. to some girlfriend too many years ago, helped her discover pleasure.

I want more immorality and better times, but I can´t do it.

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
