“They both listened silently to the water, which to them was not just water, but the voice of life, the voice of Being, the voice of perpetual Becoming.” ― Hermann Hesse #hermannhesse #siddhartha #rmbpost #leo #lion #jah #water #lake #lakemanatee #floridastateparks #canon_official #uwphoto #ikelite #waterlust @fl.stateparks

I must go to Nature disarmed of perspective and stretch myself like a large transparent canvas upon her in the hope that, my submission being perfect, the imprint of a beautiful and useful truth would be taken. ~ John Updike, The Centaur Slowing down your breathing to engage interaction with another species is somewhat a spiritual experience, letting down your guard as a self to interact with others as one is something we should all strive for in all aspects of life. We are all equal and not one being is greater than the next. #rmbpost #sand #sealife #ocean #stingray #leo #lion #jah #water #clearseawater #diving #miami #palmlife #seascape #wildlife #scuba #seacreatures #underwaterphotography #canon_official #uwphoto #ssi #openwater #ikelite #waterlust

The waking of a sting ray is a disruptive but beautiful sight… “But they made me realize more than I ever had the rarity of true originality, and also the sort of alienation it might involve” - Elizabeth Bishop
