About me

This is the real secret of life — to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realise it is play. The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That’s all there ever is. I’m here to tell you that the path to peace is right there, when you want to get away. When you are present, you can allow the mind to be as it is without getting entangled in it. If you miss the present moment, you miss your appointment with life. That is very serious!

Unexplored

"I'm not as good as some, but better than most."
- Maree

My daily sketch for today...


"Unexplored Landscape" watercolour on Bockingford - Maree©

Life can sometimes be like a landscape. There are vast, unexplored vistas within us that will remain unseen unless we make the effort to explore our inner self and find something that we've never noticed before. Sometimes we might not like what we see, but there could also be something great and exciting, something to be cherished and, like a great landscape, inspire us.

    Thanks Trish and gee, I'd barely posted it when notification of your comment came through! Did you manage to catch the entry I did shortly afterwards? Nice to see you here and your blog is lovely and colourful.

    Oh my Maree, this is such a wonderful post. Wonderful painting to go with wonderful words.

    Also your Chinese painting is great! I have a whole set of brushes, still untouched by water! You're so right, it is hard!
