PANTA REI

Before leaving England, I went to visit some local trees. They are so old and huge that I haven't noticed any change in size over my lifetime. They lend themselves to the illusion that some things always stay the same, which of course they don't, but the illusion gives me a great sense of comfort and peace. These are some of the trees we knew and loved as children.We made up all sorts of silly stories about them as they were deeply mysterious to us. PANTA REI, everything flows, everything is constantly changing, from the smallest grain of sand to the stars in the sky.
