My online journal where I share my interests in photography, nature, coffee life, journaling, fountain pens, bicycling, spirituality and asking deep questions.
If we ever want to be happy, then, we need to move beyond the level of simple material satisfaction to the development of the spiritual dimension of what it means to be human. We not only need to find out what we do best and do it to the utmost. We also need to ask ourselves again why we were born. What is it that we have that the world needs and is waiting for us to provide?

somewhere beyond is the unseeable horizon
I walk around the pond listening
longing for the birds song of hope
I need the embrace of the natural world
accepting the healing touch it offers
It’s in the absence of the spoken word
that I hear the quiet whisper from within
With slow deliberate deep breaths I
take an afternoon walk at the ponds
There are some who think
killing another human
will bring peace.But, I believe
the power of love,
surely is far greater
than anything else.Monte
