My present walking paths in Haddon Lake Park, which was once Crystal Lake. Tree lined and stream follow the path.
I believe the first living cell
Had echoes of the future in it, and felt
Direction and the great animals, the deep green forest
A the whale’s track sea; I believe this globed earth
Not all by chance and fortune brings forth her broods,
But feels and chooses. And the Galaxy, the firewheel
On which we are pinned, the whirlwind of stars in which our sun is one dust-grain, one electron, this giant atom of the universe
Is not blind force, but fulfills it’s life and intends its course.

Beautiful place to go walk. I would love to see it in the spring and summer. Nice to see you on the blogs again. Hope you are doing well and your holidays are wonderful. Happy New Year. 🙂
PJ,
Thank you! I began to blog last week and got caught up in “stuff”! It is in draft mode, and more personal blog.
Oh okay. I have never heard of “stuff.” Is it part of WordPress?
Jeff…gives one great pause for reflecting on the metaphors you provided for our life’s journey. You are in a new physical location and I see you continuing your awareness of surroundings and allowing them to bring you peace and contentment – you are finding the beauty where you are planted rather than searching for what might be. Lovely. Peace to you in the New Year With love and Joy Martie
Martie,
The peace is there among the trees and nature. The walk with Muffin and camera always allow the space for peace and direction. Thank you!
I love making new paths familiar to my earthy experience Jeff. It is the part of moving I enjoy most and they are the place I remember when I leave. Enjoy your walks!

Yes you have ventured on many a path! As I continue to do! Documenting them in creative process allows them to shine.
The walks are always enjoyed!
Paths are to be found everywhere. It ‘s ‘YOU ‘ the explorer make them whatever you want them to be .
These lovely photos could so easily have been took in MIddle England where I used to live.

Cherry,
You are correct, paths are found everywhere. Yet how many “see” them and truly walk within them!
Thank you for stopping by!
I am Love,
Jeff

You are most welcome Bala ! Thank you for doing that!
I hope you take and post pictures of the same places for every season — reflective of the changing seasons of your life; many hugs to you and your courage to embrace the changes you have faced this past year.
Barbara,
That would be a nice series to accomplish. I did it at “home” for the past several years and when I was in NY ! I will not be here for another season in this area. This is just passing through space…
I did photograph this park a few times before…
Jeff – a breathtaking environment, to be sure! Thank you for sharing it.
Thank you Laurie. You are most welcome
Jeff, superb photography!
Sandi I do the best I can! Thank you so much!
