It is grey and rainy outside today, so I am inside looking through photographs taken over the past few months. In essence reliving our visits to each city, remembering the conversations, the understanding when no words were necessary, the feelings of wonder, delight and awe, a funny and or cherished moment shared, they are all imprinted in my heart and mind. There are so many emotions and words that just do not seem to come close to ever describing that ephemeral notion or feeling. I suppose today has caused some contemplation on my part. Have Scott and I really been over here for almost three months now (in three more days it will be three months exactly)?! Our perception of time and how it passes is as individual as each of our personalities. Circumstances, perspective and experience all seem to contribute to how we perceive time. There are moments when time is fleeting, others when it seems to pass at a snail's pace, and then there are those moments that just seem to standstill. This life we have to lead is some kind of wonderful, wouldn't you agree?!!!

I wanted to share a favourite photograph of mine. I discovered this sculpture in the far corner of the churchyard down the street from where we are staying. I am in awe of the emotions the sculptor was able to portray in this piece. It brought tears to my eyes on the first visit; I seek it out any time I return. It is a sweet sadness somehow. There is the awareness of raw emotion, a heart wrenching loss. At the same time I can not help but recognize that there is a sense of gratitude for without that gift of life and love there would never be this loss.
There are new photos uploaded to flickr for your viewing pleasure, all taken in Vienna last month.
Enjoy the journey!
