Nature offers me great satisfaction ..
and more so when she provides a natural frame for my shot
WPC: Satisfaction
or enjoy my poem, Satisfied, on the same topic
Ever wonder why we are so dissatisfied?
Unhappy with our lot?
Closely watch what others have got?
Our relationships lacking somewhat?
Not quite sure if we are successful?
Mind and body not so zestful?
The only offender is our own deluded mind!
Restless, wanting – check and see what you find?
We invent our own unrealistic fantasies,
Obsessed with self-concern
[click on ‘my poem’ to read the rest … ]
Nature is paradoxically peaceful and chaotic, soothing and frightening, balanced and temperamental, stunning and scarred. Such interesting juxtaposition in a world that’s at once beautiful and appalling, I suppose.

What is in the hole of the trunk of the tree? (2nd photo) – a cockatoo or an animal of sorts?
First photo is like our ficus trees here…I call it hauntingly beautiful as our local folklore claims that a lady spirit will also live in this tree. Ficus tree roots are destructive to buildings and a ceremonial offering is done before they eradicate the tree before it undermines the structure of a building.
