Weekly Photo Challenge: Shadow

Published by

on

We are shaped by our thoughts;  we become what we think.  When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.

Buddha

Shadow

A place to clear my mind and fill shadows with joy…

    I love all of the different shades of blue in the water and sky, and the dark greens on the land. That is a really beautiful place. I see why you can go there to clear your mind and feel joy.

      Thanks so much, Robin. The blues were so pretty that day and the dark green was a thick layer of seaweed. Dangerous to walk on because it was so slippery but a great contrast against all the blue.

    A great quote. And what a view. Tranquil, nothing short of peaceful. I love what you did to the photo. It almost looks like a painting 🙂

        I am trying but getting that OVERWHELMED feeling from too many email notifications. How do you handle this?

        Some days are better than others but I don’t subscribe to email notifications because seeing the inbox number climb is just too much pressure. I scroll through my reader and try to keep a balance that way.
