The look in this meerkat’s eyes always piques my curiosity… is it surprise, fear, indignation, curiosity, or playfulness?
I never know, I just figure it’s always best to…

By the Soul’s Light
“There is one spectacle grander than the sea,
that is the sky;
there is one spectacle grander than the sky,
that is the interior of the soul.”
Victor Hugo
Impressive
“Forests, lakes, and rivers, clouds and
winds, stars and flowers,
stupendous glaciers and crystal snowflakes –
every form of animate or inanimate existence,
leaves its impress upon the soul of man.”
Orison Swett Marden
Angelic Despair
“Flowers have spoken to me more than
I can tell in written words.
They are the hieroglyphics of angels,
loved by all men for the beauty of their character,
though few can decipher even fragments of their meaning.”
Lydia M. Child

“Kindness in words creates confidence.

And for those wondering what kind of stone is displayed, this photo captures two different shades of the same calcium rich heulandite mined from the Rat’s Nest Claim in Idaho, more info at this link.

Amelia Earhart
Perfect Curliness
“Nature will bear the closest inspection.

her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain.”
Henry David Thoreau

Sara Paddison
