The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.  It is the source of all true art and science.

  1. If only the fundamental mystery would be acknowledged more, amid so much ridiculous certainty.

    . . . ahem . . . Lovely leaves in Dorothy Clive Garden.

  3. Claude says:

    Splendid photo!

  4. The photo is very appropriate. We can see some details but the big picture behind it all remains a blurry mystery.

  5. Ginnie says:

    Perfectly said and shown, Cherry.

    And in that Mysterious Realm there is just SO much.

    The power of photography, used like this in our most up-to-date communications is that we can show just how much is mysterious. Our ’science’ is doing as fine a job in showing us the deeply mysterious beneath the surface mysterious.

    But it takes an eye that is open and a readiness to look.

    Many thanks for showing this simple leaf, CherryPie.

    I have planted my first [container] garden in my life and now know the accomplishment and miracle that comes from watching your first seeds sprout into seedlings. I can’t wait to eat the fruits of my labours. :)

    It is not only a mystery,but a miracle. :)

      I know you will enjoy your first gardening miracle :-)

      I am currently nurturing my Dad’s commemorative rose. The late seasons have denied me of buds. It has 5 days to wake up ;-)
