I am watching the sea. The waves seem to know what to do. They make a journey then die on the shore. The energy is reborn and returns to the ocean. Cycle complete.
I have to blame the sun for my philosophy, or the mountain, and I suspect that the tree had a few things to share. My nest is beautiful. Crete shimmers on the horizon like an ethereal spirit. I am halfway to Lavrakas. Once again I chose solitude. Being with people is easy but alone time is so precious.

Warm wishes to you, John. Thank you! And my apologies for being really behind with reading other blogs. I’m doing a bit of a retreat from internet, only occasional access. It feels good!

This is a beautiful shot (of you, I assume?). And good words to accompany you! I love the joy you share in being your natural self. It is so life-affirming! I’ve seen a lot of this world in my natural suit, the best way to see it!! I hope we can share more of our experiences in this beauty and normal living.

Have you ever read anything by Nikos Kazantzakis? He was from Crete, became a citizen of the world and was buried on Crete.

The island Gavdos is my favorite place! I love the wild nature, the clear sea and the freedom of body and soul. There I feel really happy. Soon I will go back there.

Hi George! Going to Gavdos is a opportunity to reassess everything. To think clearly in the face of the elements. It’s beautiful, harsh and challenging. I can understand why you love it. I do also.
