shimmering, light-filled hues


finally, a visit to the iris garden. van gogh's favorite flower. monet's favorite flower. 
the link between heaven and earth. the goddess of the rainbow. 
a watercolor painting of a dream in pink, purple, blue, and green.

garden of irises

van gogh's favorite flower

the sorrow which pierced her heart

matt left for swansea but he will be back soon. i keep telling myself this! and when he does this weekend, we will do "summer" things like eat lots of fruit, watch all kinds of movies, complain about the scorching sun, take many photos, and perhaps go to the zoo?
♥♥♥
i realize that this place has become a journal of keepsakes of precious memories of my adventures, my dreams, and my love. they are from my heart all knotted together in electronic form. this introverted sanctuary that reminds me of a time before social networking sites ever existed. a personal domain of sorts. as much as i like to go on tumblr and reblog images. it is nice to just write once in a while. 
and it is quiet here...
....
oh, so quiet.

I have been thinking about this post since I saw it this morning. The same goes for my livejournal, I think. I've adjusted to the quietness of the journal and I've grown pretty fond of it. There's some kind of mystery cloud around it now, because it is much less busy than it was in the past. Very nice post by the way*
