Deep Within..

Druid's Circle.. Penmaenmawr...



You know quite well, deep within you,
that there is only a single magic,
a single power, a single salvation...
and that is called loving.
Well then, love your suffering.
Do not resist it, do not flee from it.
It is only your aversion to it that hurts..
nothing else.

~Herman Hesse

A beautiful picture and poem. I've been thinking of druids and stones. Wondering if I should go to Stonehenge for the winter gathering or not...

I think I needed to read a poem like this today x

:) visiting Stonehenge in its time of slumber would be a lovely experience.. i've only ever been during the summer solstice.. and that was a very long time ago.

loving our suffering.. easier said than done.. its like the 'chopping wood and carrying water'....... :)

I was lucky enough to visit Sotnehenge a long time ago, before it was fenced off and busy. I'm glad that we have wonderful sites like this one that are still quiet and sacred.
