Michael, our Witty Walk remains a treasured memory, even though it brought me to the point of poignantly remembered terror! Anonymous, I hope you're right. Fingers crossed! Jean, thanks for your thoughtfulness. You share with Robin not only the passion for photography, but also the wisdom to recognize the beauty where you find it. Blessings to all.Peter Clothierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11525159413387378704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3965076219235086304.post-26830993555907018192015-12-24T11:26:38.955-08:002015-12-24T11:26:38.955-08:00the politics have been glum,

You yourself cam on one of our walks. Well this year is the 25th year we have been doing them every month out in the Catalan hills away from crowds and noise. The attraction is the easy friendship and communication without hurry without noise, sometimes silent as we share the wonders of creation sometimes just for the joy of communication in silence. There are never leass than 30 or so and many times well over that.<br /><br />Very happy festive days and all good wishes for the 2016 to you and all your loved ones<br /><br />Love and hugs <br /><br />MichaelMichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058693616240831085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3965076219235086304.post-24506703360546631322015-12-24T00:15:53.327-08:002015-12-24T00:15:53.327-08:00Glad to hear from you, Peter - I was about to writ...Glad to hear from you, Peter - I was about to write and ask if you were ok. But periods of silence are good, I think, and make the words more meaningful. Warmest seasonal greetings, and all the best to your meditation group.

I never would have guessed the world would look the way it does, when I was young and thinking of the future. It is disappointing and not at all going the way my enthusiastic heart imagined. I understand the silence. If I didn't go outside to find something beautiful to photograph, there would be silence on Dharma Bums. I hope you'll post about the neighborhood gatherings. It may be something we could try here in our small town on the far north coast. Happy Holidays!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
