But, because knowledge dwells in it, the mind is active when knowledge is in control. ~ Cultivating Stillness: A Taoist Manual for Transforming Body and Mind translated by Eva Wong

This picture was taken with yesterday's photo because today was lacking in quality time outside due to life and weather... However, upon arriving home after a long morning these sweet little birds gave us such great song as they flew into the canopy I had to pause and enjoy them - celebrate them - again today!
Gratitude for life calling me into my sit spot - which was a standing spot today.
