That was a hard trip to get this picture on the blog. As usually I blame myself for being too stupid to know how to operate the computer. Conclusion for to day - is just that I am on the dial line and the connections get too crowded or I have no patience to wait till it completes the action.
Why this picture? It is the front of my castle. I planted the acorn to become an oak about 35 years ago and the spruce about 14 years back. They have grown without me paying particular attention to them.
Now my castle looks so small and what about me? It has been 40 years since I came living here and building my castle. Studied horticulture and tended my garden accordingly. For unintentional imprudence never stopped to watch silently for minute how great those trees became.
They are witnesses of how beautiful life has been here. Yes, there have been stormy weathers for the trees and not the friendliest neighbours around, but we grew - the trees and I.
I just read another author's writing: ..we grow from inside out... I look at those trees and see it in nature, maybe better than within myself. Somehow it still feels like I am lacking an inside balance and then I keep wondering: balance to what? Do I know myself or what is it that makes me look for balance - balance to my being myself?
I am getting too deep for now, time to break the thread of thoughts to something simpler. There will be hopefully other days and people around to track into my thoughts and I have chance of growing more to be myself.
