This 100th post is a bow of gratitude to sources of inspiration: nature, blogosphere writers, readers, as well as teachers, including Thich Nhat Hanh & Joanna Macy.

Breathing in, I smile
Tree’s marvelous out-breath, air
Our deep roots entwined
Great pics! 🙂
I was, just yesterday, in a heavily wooded area along a river. The trees were very majestic, towering, and incredible! But i didn’t hug any… there’s a lot of poison ivy in our area! 😉

Fortunately there was no poison oak along the tree, although plenty along forest’s trail. Thanks for your kind comment, and happy, itch-less hiking!
Congratulations on your 100 post, hope to see many many, more.
