Brain Fever! Brain Fever! Brain Fever! Today I have a guest post from a fellow birder and wildlife enthusiast. Hemant, very kindly agreed to put together his forest adventure to Corbett National Park, in the form of a free flowing verse/poem.
“Nature doesn’t promise you anything – an afterlife, rewards for good behaviour, protection from enemies, wealth, happiness, progeny, all things human desire and pray for. No, nature does not promise these things. Nature is a reward in itself.” – The Book of Nature, Ruskin Bond
“I think the most important quality in a birdwatcher is a willingness to stand quietly and see what comes. Our everyday lives obscure a truth about existence – that at the heart of everything there lies a stillness and a light.” ― Lynn Thomson, Birding with Yeats: A Mother’s Memoir
Anticipate It is full moon tomorrow, September 10, 2022 and the planet mercury just went retrograde starting today, till 2 October, 2022. I wonder what this full moon and mercury retrograde will bring!
“Weekends don’t count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless.” Bill Watterson
“It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon… I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals, or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain mine or your own without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.” – Oriah Mountain Dreamer , The Invitation
“I am rooted, but I flow.” – Virginia Woolf Six Months of “Balanced Flow”
“He is not worthy of the honey-comb, that shuns the hives because the bees have stings.” -William Shakespeare
“Be still like a mountain and flow like a great river.” – Lao Tzu Balance (noun) – “Stability found at the centre of acceptance.”

Yes, we turn 5 on 6th December. But, having said that; yes, I have missed not being in my cosy den too! Watch out for this space for a quiet celebratory post this time, just by me.
