Winter Blues are in full force around here lately with cold winter weather, a battle against a bodily cold and a tiring of the hibernation mode. I've been needing some escape, and the other day I happened to see the images that I'd been pinning lined up together on Pinterest- they seemed to fit perfectly, so I thought I'd create a small grid here to show you what's been catching my eye. Perhaps I'll just get lost in these images to escape the humdrum...

"Nature never taught me that there exists a God of glory and infinite majesty. I had to learn that in other ways. But nature gave the word glory a meaning for me. I still do not know where else I could have found one."

An excerpt and some good words from an interview with Joy Williams on her new album:

Do you feel that you have come home with VENUS? Home seems to be a touchstone for you. Can you talk about the concept of home for you? 

Being known. Being seen. Belonging. That can happen everywhere. I'm learning it has to start with me. What's the old phrase? "Know thyself." Not being afraid to let my edges out has been a major part of being seen. Of being myself. Charlie Peacock said something in studio that really spoke to me. He said, "Don't try harder. Try less."
