Postcard from Up North

Absence diminishes commonplace passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and kindles fire. ~ Francois, duc de La Rochefoucauld

(Another reflection on the bay, its own version of red, white, and blue.)

    A beautiful photograph and an inspiring and enlightening quote. A basic insight to help discernment–detach and see what diminishes and what deepens and grows. Thanks for the beauty and the wisdom.
