“I think it was Thomas Merton who said that the easiest way to rid yourself of neurosis is to surround yourself with nature, or more specifically trees.
"You can't be neurotic in front of a bunch of trees," he claimed; nor, I hasten to add, in front of dunes or sea or humble scrub pine.
Standing here at the edge of the world shows me how exaggerated my own emotions seem to be.
This, strong, silent place interrupts confusion, rage, and depression, and just now I feel more at home with the landscape than with people.”
-Joan Anderson, in A Year By The Sea, p.13
Happy to observe winter's snow through your camera lens. Beautiful.
