@bleujay, We have to spread the kindness and not arrogance because kindness will going to spread the true essence of peace and gratitude. Stay blessed.

That looks like a place for some serious 'wander about in the trees' sort of action.  Very pretty indeed.  I miss hardwood trees. We mainly have evergreens out here, which is nice, but a change is fun at times too. Hardwood forests are GORGEOUS.  At all times of the year. And if you get chased by a cow in your wanderings,  even better, more exercise.  Have a nice night.

"Arrogance has no gratitude" 

Oh dear! Amen to that! I don't think there's any space left if we carry an attitude of gratitude. And it is important to you check out our gratitude meter every once in a while.

Beautiful scenery as I watch winter being peeled away layer by layer to make room for the spring. The scenery is peaceful if not a bit chilling.

Good morning from here and still on vacation and hoping that it gets snowed out before I come home.

Thank you for such wise principle, @bleujay, it is very true and that topic always makes me feel sad and powerless. But then I just think this is just us, human, we are all different and in many case it is difficult to change people, may be in early childhood.

You have captured a peaceful scene of grazing cattle and it seems it is getting warmer at your side. Nice sunny day. I wish you and your family a nice week :)

I am not in the habit of traversing the blockchain making confessions, but this time the principle awoke something within me. I confess to having (when I was much younger than the older, wiser me that stares back from the mirror today) a bit of a problem with arrogance... I'm a sensible, logical person so of course I did not see it as that, had it ever dawned on me I would have transformed my behaviour quickly and felt quite horrified.

I thought of myself in terms like, confident, forthright and having the courage of my conviction. Later with that oh-so-perfect hindsight I realised the truth. 

BUT... To the other important part of your principle. I live a life that starts with gratitude as I awake and I try ((only human of course)) and maintain it throughout the day. Recently I have been **actively** trying to harness the sheer power of gratitude. What I mean by that specifically is that I believe all relationships, even the one we have with our-self can be far more meaningful if we take at least a moment to appreciate the best qualities in those who surround us and those we meet as we go through the day.

I believed I had gratitude when I was younger and more flawed, but on reflection I was probably incapable of exhibiting it meaningfully as there is a certain humble quality that is generally present when true gratitude is displayed.

The photographs are visually stunning and just the kind that make us feel something inside of us, I am sure you know what I mean by that. They are more interactive than a photo that just depicts beauty, I can imagine being wrapped up and enjoying the crisp air as i look upon them.

They feel particularly inspiring to me right now as they appear to have one foot in Winter and the other in Springtime, which is exactly the way I feel regarding the current point in the season.

Take great care of you and yours my friend. I feel it has been a little while since I caught up *properly* due to a mountain of commitments. I trust that 2019 has thus far, been an inspiring  journey for you.  😊

Great principle!  That's really true!  

Very wonderful scenery!  The landscape covering with snow is even more gorgeous!  WOW!  I love this!

It's very creative idea that you add those cows in the photos.....  

Great shot!

Wishing you and yours a nice day!  ;)
