Tuesday Evening....and a Moment of Zen....


*************************************
Ever fallen in love with a tree....this cypress has totally won my heart....It is noble, alone, strong....beautiful.....

In my tv room, I have a painting I did....and on the bottem of it I painted in Japanese Caligraphy...
"He who has Integrity is never alone "....
( I need to find the Japanese translation for you..)

anyways...this Tree on the California Coast always reminds me of that phrase....

And now for your moment of Zen......namaste.

Hello Enigma,
Lovely music, I once heard it said, that trees have feelings and thoughts, that they know... one day, they will die.
Which is why they produce little trees.

I was just out watching the "Obama moon", how about you? I finally figured out WHY it is the Obama moon. It is a big large "O" up in the sky, shining down on us, lighting the way!

I think that is a Torrey Pine tree, also known as Monterey Pine? We had some of those twisty hardy survivors down along San Diego coast, too. They have to withstand a lot of bad conditions. But my favorite is still the Brislecone Pine (mostly in the Sierra Nevadas), another hardy survivor which can attain a lifespan of thousands of human years.

If I were going to Zen out again over a tree it would have to be a Sequoia. More wisdom in the centuries old wood.
