My backyard has emerged from winter looking like crappie. But new life is blooming, such as the lilac bush! #yycgarden #yycspring #gardening #lilacbush (at Calgary, Alberta)

⛅ #mentalhealthmonth ⛅ #mentalhealthweek ⛅ The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen. ― Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross ⛅ #GetLoud #MentalHealthMatters #Flowers #FoundSpring #Flowerphotography #flowersofinstagram #flowersofig #whiteflowers #springflowers #naturephotography #NatureLovers #yycspring #capturecalgary #qotd

To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, to all bravely await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony. -- William Henry Channing #foundspring #crocus #thelastofthecrocusflowers #yyc #calgaryspring2016 #yycspring #calgaryparks #nosehill #springflowers #purpleflowers #qotd #calgary #flowers #instaflower #wildflowers #prairiecountry #outwalking #thisismysymphony

I swear I will not dishonor my soul with hatred, but offer myself humbly as a guardian of nature, as a healer of misery, as a messenger of wonder, as an architect of peace. -- DIANE ACKERMA #qotd #foundspring #flowers #spring #calgary #yyc #yycspring #calgaryspring2016 #springflowers #yellow #yellowflowers #outwalking #Loarx #saturday #hope #peace #zenmoment
