A mild diversion

Posted by Tania Kindersley.

Today is all visual, to take your mind off the budget.

It was going to be in black and white:

P6222976

P6222982

P6222987

P6223002

P6223028

But then I saw the poppies and the peonies, and had to go into colour:

Then I became slightly mesmerised by the extraordinary bark on my beloved Scots pine:

And then I realised that, in some cases, all you need for happiness is a really big stick:

While in others, all that is required is some mossy grass to sprawl upon:

Apologies for slight dog overload. It was either that or a knotty Keynsian argument. I think I probably came down on the right side of that choice.

I leave you with a glorious thought from Albert Einstein, who knew a thing or two:

'There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.'

  1. Woke up feeling slightly melancholy - might be something like this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sisyphus). These were just what I needed and please don't apologise for too many dog photos - I love them.

  2. So Lovely - am always happy when you come to visit, and SO glad the pictures helped with the damn rock-pushing. Don't want to sound too bumper stickerish, but sometimes I do think that any addition, however tiny, to sum total of human happiness is the most important thing in life. So you have made me feel worthwhile today.
