"I Shut my eyes in order to see"... Gauguin.
I love this Quote by Gauguin who was a post impressionist painter Eugène Henri Paul Gauguinborn in 1848. He was a bold experimeter of color. Many of his works were done in Tahiti. He was a friend of Vincent Van Gogh.
The more I shut my eyes and listen to my still voice the more I realize that I have the answers to so many of my daily questions. The solution does not lie somewhere else.-MGRead More

I am slowing down and adjusting to the quiet ever so slowly. The fields, the green trees, the ocean and the the hummingbirds are letting me go to my secret inner compartments of my mind. The place that is not asking what is next but rather what is important.
