Strength from within is such a true value. I do things I call feeding my spirit to keep my inner strength available. For me that can be things like remembering a favorite uncle who always liked people and let them know it. Or, it can be remembering how my mother loved children and stayed young at heart in doing so. There are many animals who have charmed me both wild and tamed. A little time with such memories brings smiles and an ever-after happiness. My spirit thrives on such feedings.

These are beautiful Lyn, they capture the complexity of winter wonderfully. They feel both precious and fragile as well as strong and luminous-they feel like winter! I love the moments you’ve chosen to share with us as you explore your relationship to this place.

I love your beautiful photographs of ice and snow. Such a novelty for me in a place that doesn’t have these at any time of the year, and where it’s mid summer now. A good reminder that there’s more world outside the tiny part we inhabit.

I love these photos. They remind me to always look carefully. There is beauty all around us, especially in the small stuff, but you have to take time to see it.

Yes, Elizabeth, time is essential. And it can be so hard to create.
