Our natural world is
alive with beauty and wonder
It's important for our peace
of mind and our enthusiasm for life
To love the world we live in
and care of the earth
and all living things'.

We are all visitors to this time... this place...
we are just passing through.
Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love...
and then we return home.

'MY COUNTRY"

(an iconic poem about Australia)

The love of field and coppice,
Of green and shaded lanes,
Of ordered woods and gardens
Is running in your veins.
Strong love of grey-blue distance,
Brown streams and soft, dim skies-
I know but cannot share it,
My love is otherwise.

I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror-
The wide brown land for me!

The stark white ring-barked forests,
All tragic to the moon,
The sapphire-misted mountains,
The hot gold hush of noon,
Green tangle of the brushes
Where lithe lianas coil,
And orchids deck the tree-tops,
And ferns the warm dark soil.

Core of my heart, my country!
Her pitiless blue sky,
When sick at heart, around us,
We see the cattle die-
But then the grey clouds gather,
And we can bless again
The drumming of an army,
The steady soaking rain.

Core of my heart, my country!
Land of the rainbow gold,
For flood and fire and famine
She pays us back threefold.
Over the thirsty paddocks,
Watch, after many days,
The filmy veil of greenness
That thickens as we gaze.

An opal-hearted country,
A wilful, lavish land-
All you who have not loved her,
You will not understand-
Though earth holds many splendours,
Wherever I may die,
I know to what brown country
My homing thoughts will fly.

MY COUNTRY

"The grand show is eternal
it is always sunrise somewhere;
the dew is never dried all at once;
a shower is forever falling;
vapour is ever rising .
Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents
and islands, each in its turn,
as the round earth rolls"

John Muir
(1838 -1914)

Climb the mountains and get their
good tidings.
Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into the trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness
into you, and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.

John Muir

In every life there comes a time
to walk in shadows and in sunlight,
To hear silence and song,
To shed tears of sadness and of joy,
To forget, and remember
What has been given.....

Take part in activities
That interest you -
That you enjoy,
and in which you can immerse yourself
Enjoying yourself in this way ,
Will water the flower of your soul.........

Can we conceive what humanity
would be
If it did not know the flowers?

Maurice Maeterlinck (1862 - 1949)

இڿڰۣ-ڰۣ—...இڿڰۣ-ڰۣ—

Just living is not enough
One must have sunshine, freedom
and a little flower.

Hans Christian Andersen (1805 - 1875)

இڿڰۣ-ڰۣ—...இڿڰۣ-ڰۣ—

My desire is this:
That throughout the four seasons
I shall not pass a single day
When no flower opens.

Ou-Yang Hsiu (1007 - 1072)
