Meditation ~ Strange Beauty

If I could define enlightenment briefly I would say it is the quiet acceptance of what is.
~ Wayne Dyer

We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.
~ Joseph Campbell

Growth begins when we begin to accept our own weakness.
~ Jean Vanier

I'd like to know what kind of weird plants these are ~ cuz I love them. (shot at the bishop's garden with my wicked-cool new lens)

When you find out let me know. I'd like some, too. Perhaps you can catch the gardener one maorning at work.

Besides being a fine lens for macro-photography, that 100mm you've got is an excellent (and flattering) portrait lens.

Wierd but gorgeous. How's the new camera coming on? We must test it out in the gardens at the Fransiscan Monestary sometime soon!
