Good morning! It’s Saturday. Up next in our garden is the echinacea, shown here doing their stretches while the bees blithely roll around in the hollyhocks—which are now in the second movement of their performance.
Beautiful. I love the quote. Nature is what is sustaining so many of us, especially now. Echinacea has so many wonderful properties- tea, dyeing, pollinator helper, pure beauty. What an amazing flower.
Well, now I’m going to look at my garden in a different lens - as though they are in a fashion show, thanks to your beautiful descriptions. And the quote is perfect for the current state of the world. Thanks, as always, for providing us with a moment of calm.
Love the E.B. White quote.
There's nothing like an E.B. White quote to set one to rights. <3
E. B. White had good taste in fauna...
Nature is our guardian, wish we took better care of it in return. Love your photos and quotes.
Great expansion on EB White! So true yet I forget…
Thank you, Clara. Paraphrasing EB White, your Daily Respite sustains me very well indeed. Another perfect quote today. 💕

Nature handles change much better than we humans do.

You're welcome, Patty!
Your work has become a great sustainer of my soul. Thank you.
Isn’t that the truth!
You're very welcome.
This is precisely why I follow the Great Celtic Wheel of the Year! Nature continues even as humans flail. I find it very comforting.
Another demo of your photographic skills! Also, love E B White. Thanks, Clara, for helping to balance our lives.
Perfect!
The only thing that brings peace right now is nature!
I love my the day lilies in my garden; every day a new combination of colors! And right now, in my little part of Maine, it’s peak season 💕
Pretty picture and great quote😊
