"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
-Hamlet, Act One, Scene Five
This above all: to thine ownself be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man.” - (again with the Hamlet)
I really enjoyed my walk through the Lewiston labyrinth on Saturday during the retreat's lunch break. It's so relaxing to walk through the flowers and to read the inscriptions on the stones inlaid along the pathways. The bench in the center is perfect for meditating.
It is so important to slow down and take the time to appreciate the simple things in life.
In NZ it is late autumn and I'm trying not to get so wound up in what I'm doing that I miss the beauty of this time of year. The grapevines above the deck are a beautiful yellow and contrast with the red of the maple and the crab apples. Tuis and bell birds are flying in each day to drink the nectar from the banksia tree.
You're a wise woman who knows when to slow down and enjoy.
