Everyday life is the special occasion!

Country Road Take Me Home...


I went down here on a sunny afternoon in search of strong bold colors, amazing textures and sheer breathtaking beauty. Nothing would predict, in this apparently dry area, the extraordinary diversity that was here, patiently waiting to be found. I stopped briefly at the top of this dirt  and sinuous road that went down in an abrupt extension almost to loose sight of. A road that resembles life itself, with its winding, uncertain terrain and sharp stones, lined with thorny bushes, where so often you need to get lost in, so that you can find yourself again!

Segui por aqui numa tarde de sol tórrido em busca de cores fortes, texturas surpreendentes e pura beleza de cortar a respiração. Nada fazia antever, neste terreno aparentemente seco, a extraordinária diversidade que por aqui se encontrava, pacientemente à espera de ser descoberta. Parei por instantes no cimo desta estrada de terra batida e formas sinuosas que descia em abrupto  numa extensão quase a perder de vista. Uma estrada que se assemelha à própria vida, com o seu serpentear, de terreno incerto e pedras cortantes ladeada de arbustos espinhosos, onde tantas vezes é preciso perdermo-nos, para nos voltarmos a encontrar!

  3. Yes, these dirt roads are often what we need sometimes for alone time. What a special way to compare it to life. Look at these flowers - they are so bright and blooming with color!
