Where sings your soul
the more contentedly?
In a civilized,
luxurious,
pampered garden?
Or in a park,
wild and free
beside the sea?
It's all too much.
It gets to me!

@onceuponatime,
Are you still in Ireland? Photography #11, it seems like a Chinese fortress! I think we are not yet purely civilized! Personally I like wild and free than this pretending civilized life!
Cheers~

When you are being pursued by the Furies, Loutraki might look like a welcome respite. But there is no comfort from them to be found here :)

Always wild and free beside the see for me @onceuponatime. 😁
Although I'm quite partial to a civilised, pampered garden too. But given the choice it is the sea. Always the sea.

So if we are living in the moment (today) it is civilization then. If we are living in the future (tomorrow), it is nature. I think it should be the other way around :-)

For me it's the balance of the two. I find my soul sings with the wild and free see and haphazzard 'garden' of wood, field and shore, but also I need the manicured box headge and stone fountain to also enliven my spirit.
In some ways I feel these two extremes need one another for the comparison and to enrich each of their separate beauties in that contrast.

I like them all but I think I decide for; by the sea! I think I feel that wind that embraces my body and the sea so awesome and wonderful.
I love the last photo!
