Miserable and Magical

Took this picture months ago. It was one fun day! To get this picture we stepped into the "no entry" area which was the better area of course, filled with lovely flowers. Then one of the guards saw us and yup! he blew his whistle. But it's a win win! I mean we got to act like kids and got this picture above.
Yes, it was miserable and magical. . . See what I did there? No? sigh. . never-mind. 

A tree says. . .

A tree says: My strength is trust. I know nothing about my fathers, I know nothing about the thousand children that every year spring out of me. I live out the secret out my seed to the very end, and I care for nothing else. I trust that God is in me. I trust that my labor is holy. Out of this trust I live.

- Hermann Hesse
