Dewdrops on spiderwebs and words from John Muir.

Look What Jeff Found

Fear nothing.-John Muir

Thursday Muir

One of the rich, ripe days that enlarge one’s life-so much of sun upon one side of it,so much of moon on the other.-John Muir

Wednesday Muir

To the sane and free it will hardly seem necessaryto cross the continent in search of wild beauty,however easy the way,for they find it in abundancewherever they chance to be.-John Muir

Tuesday Muir

Come to the woods, for here there is rest.There is no repose like that ofthe green deep woods.Here grow the wallflower and the violet.The squirrel will come and sit upon your knee,the logcock will wake you in the morning.Sleep in forgetfulness of all ill.-John Muir

Words to Kick-Start a Summer Monday

Warm, sunny day,thrilling plants and animals and rocks alike,making sap and blood flow fast,and making every particle…throb and swirland dance in glad accord like star-dust. No dullness anywhere visible or thinkable. No stagnation, no death. Everything kept in joyful rhythmic motionin the pulses of Nature’s big heart.-John Muir
