I thought of you when I saw this photo and read the title. Wonderfully expressive capture.

A wonderfully composed lone tree shot Isabel. The silhouetted tree looks lovely against that gorgeous sky..!!

Sorry to hear you're feeling out of sorts.........I hope things improve for you soon :-)

Thanks Keith, but if you read my post from Saturday you will understand why I feel like this… don’t think it will improve for us Jews, even if in the diaspora many don’t agree with Bibi’s politics we are insulted, ostracized… just for being Jews.

In fact life is such…….

"You came to me out of a world which I do not know and do not understand. Sooner or later, I know that you would be recaptured by it, Why should I wish to detain you? Have I not learned how to live alone? Have I not found in my own solitude the strength to endure all things--even the buffeting of snarling winds and the rage of destructive lightnings? Where did I get this power endurance from? I drew it forth out of my own heart, where at first it lay asleep. Now I fear none and nothing--not even death, which cannot be far away. I have learned to depend on no help, except my own. That, my friend, is my answer to you. Be self reliant. Wheresoever you go, remain a hermit inwardly. Then your world can never weaken you. Do not leave your stillness here after you find it. Take it back with you into that distant life whose agitation rarely reaches me, hold to it as your most treasured possession, and then, unafraid, you may let all storms blow past you. Remember always that you derive your being from heaven. My own peace I give to you"

Thanks for this Dinesh. I have read Brunton when younger, this exert suits me well.
I have always been the one who doesn’t fit in and am ok with myself and loneliness.
But as Jew this days are being difficult, see terrorists being rewarded and have to low profile because antisemitism is growing indiscriminately in all countries, feels like 90 years ago… we have a target on our backs now.

The sky is stunning and the eucalyptus is its perfect counterbalance.
