Sometimes I have to just let nature be my postcard!

I suffer a lot.

It's what my life seems determined for me to do. (at least for the past sixteen or seventeen years!)

The above photo is of a "Quokka". A macropod that lives on a few Australian islands.

I've added this photo because it makes me smile to see it. The animal has a smile on its face, and if, and I emphasize this, it is left to just be what it is, it is happy!

We (human beings) construct several layers of living that can and more often than not, do cause pain and destruction of our happiness and that of others.

Nature plays out as it must, the circle remains unbroken and even causes some stress. But this all comes about as a necessary outcome(s) dynamic and not a boardroom concoction.

I allow nature to be my postcard which means I don't offer up photos of my lack of smile, or my anger because that's an apparent thing to me, and not something that I need to force into the lives of other people!

Even if someone should desire to see the photo(s), it would be rather crude for me to post them, so, I don't.

Instead, I hope the photos I post, will bring a moment of happiness to someone.

Peace, my friends.

Thank you for posting the photos. They made me smile too. We have to take the little things each day that can, momentarily, take us out of the hell that we live in. My little dog does this for me several times a day. She is so happy just being her and doing doggy things. Thank you for reminding me of this. I wish you well.

What a cutie! Looks very similar to a koala (possible relations)? He does have a lovely smile!

Wow! Thank you, a lovely memory of visiting Rottnest Island, Western Australia where I saw these gorgeous little animals. I understand they are unique to this island.
