Mix Of Clouds And Blue Sky

billowing clouds

I came to a point where
I needed solitude and
just stop the machine
of thinking and enjoying
what they call living,
I just wanted to lie in
the grass and look at
the clouds.

Dark clouds, ominous clouds. Call them any type of clouds, they do have a beautiful look.

Which Is It
One meteorologist
says it is partly
sunny.
Another one will
say partly cloudy.
Which is it then?
I say, flip a coin.

Sunday Zen Quote
“Mind is simply a combination of all the thoughts, of all the clouds. Mind has no independent nature of its own. When all the thoughts are gone and the sky is clean and clear, you will see that everything that you have paid so much attention to is nothing but emptiness. Your thoughts were all empty. They contained nothing, they were void. ” – Osho

Tuesday Morning Quote
“When I am attacked by gloomy thoughts, nothing helps me so much as running to my books. They quickly absorb me and banish the clouds from my mind.”
– Michel de Montaigne
Zen Proverb
The blue mountains are of themselves blue mountains;
The white clouds are of themselves white clouds.

Crappy Weather
Photo was taken on the 21st, well before the worst of the storm hit late last night. Constant heavy rain and windy as all hell. Gotta love New England weather.

The Way It Is
When I see blue sky with a smattering of clouds, it makes me happy. This my fellow readers, is all I need. Don’t need religion, nor read the bible. Don’t need to be told how to enjoy life. I am just basically one happy man, that likes solitude, peace of mind, and quietness.
The coffee tastes so much better, when I’m in a Zen moment. It makes the day much easier to enjoy, and live life to the fullest.

Just Thinking
There are no two clouds that look the same.
A Zen Sky
Peaceful Zen summer sky.
The atmosphere at its best.
It makes people happy.
Time of photo: 5:48 PM.
Big Foot In The Sky
The cloud has the look of a big foot. There was numerous thunderheads and had the look of bad storms, but nothing really happened.
Cloud Eating The Sun
The cloud gobbled up the sun.
Bye bye.
May another sun take your place.
If not, it was nice knowing you.
Sunset
Most of the day was
cloudy, dull and humid.
It turned out to be
a nice evening
at 7:50 PM.
Clouds
The air is awful. Humid and sticky as hell.
Three Things
Time of photo: 7:40 PM.
Evening Sun Partially Hidden
I like it when the sun is partially hidden by the clouds. It makes the sky look beautiful.
Time of photo: 7:34 PM.
Looking
I love the mid-morning of the streaking, wispy clouds.
Time of photo: 9:36 AM.
Today The Heat Really Sucked
The heat and humidity really sucked today. At 4:00 PM, the air was so damn stifling, it like sucked the air right of you. The photo above and below were taken at 6:14 PM. The rain, or what rain fell was a short welcome relief.
Hazy & Cloudy
At 1:05 PM, it was hazy, cloudy and 87 F with a feel of 93. 30 C with a feel of 34. The breeze in the shade feels good.

The rain had just ended, and the sky still had the gloomy look. Warm and muggy here.
Sky Photo
Took this photo, using the B&W mode. Hint: I do love black & white.
Friday Afternoon Sunset
It was 60 degrees at 4:28 pm. When I saw the colorful sky, I knew I had to take the photo of it.
In about 4 weeks, the sun will be setting at or around 4:10 pm.
Thinking
I came to a point where I needed solitude and just stop the machine of ‘thinking’ and ‘enjoying’ what they call ‘living’, I just wanted to lie in the grass and look at the clouds.

Saturday Sunset(s)
Another warm day here in Massachusetts, which will be the last one. Colder air moving in for Sunday and Monday.
Here’s a couple of photos of the end of day’s sunset.
Bright Sunset Photos @ 5:45 PM
Took these photos at 5:45 pm, and I would like to share them you. It’s not to often that you see a sunset like this.
In the center right of this photo, you can make out the FM radio tower.
The second photo is taken a few feet away from the first one.
The last one, I looked up and saw the nice colors, so I snapped it.
Taking a stroll …
Taking a stroll, as I do everyday, I bump into Mr. I Know Everything, You Know Squat. He’s the only human being that has a common in his name.
Anyways, Mr. I Know Everything, You Know Squat, says that it is going to rain, and that will come down in buckets. He never said whether be made of steel or plastic. I tell him that it is not going to rain, as there was not one iota of a cloud. He insisted that it is going to rain, and that it will be here anytime.
Again, I told him that it is not going to rain, but he kept insisting that it is.
I told Mr. I Know Everything, You Know Squat that it is time to amble on, and continue with my daily constitution.
Wouldn’t you know, I was about a good mile into my walk, when the sky turned an ugly dark gray, the mist has now begun, and within a few minutes, the clouds just opened up, and drenched, soaked, and looked like
someone that had just crawled out of a washing machine.
Now I am feeling miserable, because that ass of human, Mr. I Know Everything, You Know Squat proved me wrong. Again!
