“As human beings we all want to be happy and free from misery
we have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace.
The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger, attachment, fear and suspicion,
while love and compassion and a sense of universal responsibility are the sources of peace and happiness.”
Dalai Lama

Vanilla
friend
do you get the
coloring of the leaves where you are
like we do here? Tree Hug

just because I don't know;
I've been over your way
only during the summer months,
usually, years ago...LOL

by **Vanilla2** November 13th 2009, 6:47 am

d-Knots yes, but we may have to look for them, normally you would see this sort of array of colour in parks, our streets and roads are not quite so colourful, maybe the odd colourful tree you will see. Saying that I have a lovely small bush in my garden that is the lovely red colour you see in this last picture but had only come alive a few weeks ago, sadly the leaves have now fallen off.

To enjoy good health,
to bring true happiness to one's family,
to bring peace to all,
one must first discipline and control one's own mind.
If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment,
and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.”
Buddha

Freedom is the basic condition for you to touch life,
to touch the blue sky,
the trees,
the birds,
the tea,
and the other person.

"We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness.
God is the friend of silence.
See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence;
see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls.”

The flowers are beautiful and the colors...wow!
The caption of that pix talks about silence...I thought I'd share something I just read about silence, music and spirituality....
Peace and Blessings,

In the spiritual world, next to meditation is music, the breath of music. Meditation is silence, energising and fulfilling. Silence is the eloquent expression of the inexpressible. Aldous Huxley says: “After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.”

How majestic is the animal world!!! Great picture!!!!
Please all, consider adding the wolves in your daily prayers as Americans are killing them off in licensed hunts in places like Montana, Alaska, Idaho, etc as we speak.
It is a sad state of affairs and a sign of the decline of humanity when the wolves are no longer revered and honored as taught by our Native American founders, the Indians.

by **Serenity - Dawn** November 22nd 2009, 5:24 pm

I didn't know that WhiteShaman.....

Thank you for telling me, I will make certain to add them to my prayers... They are too beautiful to be hunted in any way. Praying
