A Buddhist buddy gave us a Berkeley tie-dye tomato plant this morning. It looks like we’re growing this spring.

The image shows a scenic forest view with tall pine trees and a winding road running through the forest. It’s taken from an elevated position on a grassy hillside, looking down at the road. The sky above is filled with dramatic clouds at sunrise, with soft golden and blue hues visible in the cloudy sky. The overall scene captures a tranquil natural landscape with the contrast between the dense forest and the man-made road cutting through it.

The image shows a stunning sunrise with vibrant golden and purple clouds illuminating the sky. In the foreground, there are houses and trees silhouetted against the sunset. The view appears to be from an elevated position overlooking a coastal area or bay, with distant mountains visible on the horizon. The dramatic lighting creates a striking contrast between the dark silhouettes of buildings and trees and the brilliant yellow-orange sunset sky.

There is cause for encouragement this morning, besides the usually beautiful world we live in.

The image shows a deer partially hidden among dense vegetation with small yellow flowers. The deer’s ears and part of its body are visible through the tall plants, demonstrating excellent natural camouflage. The surrounding foliage appears to be flowering shrubs or wildflowers with bright yellow blooms. This creates a beautiful scene of wildlife in its natural habitat.

Two deer standing on a rocky, grassy hillside with small yellow wildflowers scattered throughout. The deer have brownish-gray coats and are alert, with one standing slightly higher on the slope than the other. They appear to be foraging among the vegetation in a natural wilderness setting.

Good morning.
It's a chill and cloudy day today. Yesterday's snow has melted already, luckily.

A large grassy field with houses in the background is depicted in this image. The field is vast and stretches out before us, lush with green grass. In the distance, a cluster of houses can be seen against a backdrop of a cloudy sky. The dominant colors in the image are green for the grass and white for the background. There are no discernible objects or faces in the scene, just the serene beauty of nature. The overall vibe is peaceful and rural, with a touch of simplicity and tranquility. This image captures the essence of a quiet countryside landscape on a cloudy day.

Teachings also warn that craving for wealth causes suffering, as all material things are impermanent.

For laypeople, the Buddha advised balanced wealth management: spending some, saving some, investing some, and giving some away - suggesting practical financial wisdom alongside spiritual guidance.

Good morning! This is today's weather. I was a LITTLE bit surprised when I saw the snow.

Luckily I'm in home office. My usual commute train seems to have issues and just got cancelled after half the way.

Looks like a lucky day - well not for those in the train.

A serene winter scene is depicted in this image, showcasing a road covered in a blanket of snow. The monochrome photograph features a dominant color palette of grey and white, with accents of dark grey. In the background, a row of trees can be seen, their branches dusted with snow. A palm tree and a bench are also visible in the foreground, adding a touch of contrast to the snowy landscape. The image exudes a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere, evoking the feeling of a cold winter day.

The f-stops here. Through nominally careful experimentation with the iPhone’s manual controls, I tried manipulating depth of field. While the results don’t rival dedicated cameras, they reveal potential in not always using a point-and-shoot method.

The image shows a close-up of a slender tree trunk with distinctive gray bark that has horizontal lines and a small knot or burl. The trunk is in sharp focus in the foreground, while other trees and greenery can be seen blurred in the background, creating a sense of depth in what appears to be a forest setting with grass on the forest floor.

The image shows a tree stump on a small mound covered with moss, grass, and small yellow flowers. The stump appears weathered and dark brown, sitting atop a gentle hill of soil with various small plants growing around it. The background is blurred but shows a green, natural setting, likely in a forest or garden area.

This image shows a close-up of a wildflower with bright red tubular blooms growing on a slender, dark stem. The red flowers curve downward in a distinctive manner. Surrounding the flowering stem are several long, green leaves. There appears to be some morning dew or water droplets visible on one of the leaves. The background is softly blurred with green and yellow tones, creating a natural bokeh effect.

This image shows a hillside forest landscape with a tree stump in the foreground on a grassy slope. A narrow road or path is visible winding through the dense evergreen forest in the background. Above, there’s a dramatic sky with blue patches and billowing gray clouds. The scene appears to be taken during daytime in what looks like a coastal or mountainous pine forest area.

Good morning! Friday!
The weather forecast for the weekend looks... Challenging.
But let's enjoy this Friday first.

A serene and misty scene unfolds in this image, showcasing a foggy field surrounded by houses and trees. The atmosphere is enveloped in a soft haze, creating a sense of tranquility and mystery. The dominant colors of grey add to the ethereal quality of the landscape, while the accent color of a deep blue sky peeks through the fog. The grass in the foreground is lush and green, contrasting with the bare branches of the trees. This winter setting evokes a sense of peace and solitude, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature.

When I attended high school, I perceived two distinct types among the student body: those likely to stick your head in a toilet and those likely to get their head stuck in one. Guess which group I believe is running the federal government now.

Don’t @ me, bro.
