I just stumbled across my image on your blog on the 12th November ("It is possible..."). I'm really honoured that you liked my image, and it's great to see such fantastic words put together with it - these words are exactly what I felt at the moment that I took the photo :)
However, I'm not sure if you're aware, but photos on flickr are copyright unless otherwise indicated. I would have appreciated you getting my permission first, and also linking the photo back to my website instead of saving your own version (flickr provides html to do this if you click on "all sizes", then selecting the text from option 1, I don't have this option, as too many people have used my work without permission).
I have a message on my profile about this... sorry for writing such a long comment, I just couldn't find a way to email you.
Hi! I'm Connie. Thank you for visiting my blog. I am using this space to share words of encouragement, lift spirits, inspire others, and share beautiful photography. It is my hope that I can make a difference in the lives of others, by encouraging them to make the most of theirs.
"If you are not spending all of your waking life in discontent, worry, anxiety, depression, despair, or consumed by other negative states; if you are able to enjoy simple things like listening to the sound of the rain or the wind; if you can see the beauty of clouds moving across the sky or be alone at times without feeling lonely or needing the mental stimulus of entertainment; if you find yourself treating a complete stranger with heartfelt kindness without wanting anything from him or her . . . it means that a space has opened up, no matter how briefly, of alive peace, even though it may be subtle. . . . ."
"So when you appreciate something simple - a sound, a sight, a touch - when you see beauty, when you feel loving kindness toward another, sense the inner spaciousness that is the source and background to that experience. . . . ."
"Be still. Look. Listen. Be present."
