The word prompt this week at Our Beautiful World is
Stillness
... chosen for us by Wendy
Stillness is something I learned a lot about in the years I studied Practical Philosophy ... to let the mind fall still ... to connect instead with sound, sight, the universe and oneself
It takes practice but it can work wonders ... It can dissipate all anxiety
For even on the roughest oceans ... just below the surface of crashing waves ... there is always Stillness
After the storms we had this week ... up 140mph winds ... my wind chimes fell silent
Stillness returned ...
Stillness ...
Living statues
Sitting in the heat of the day in Palma Majorca
Can you imagine sitting in the heat all day with such Stillness? I couldn't
Especially dressed in dark clothing
They've learnt the art of Stillness ... you don't even see them breathe
We're looking forward to seeing your photos this week ... Share with us at

Have a peaceful Sunday
Till soon
