We do not expect people to be deeply moved by what is not unusual.... If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence. - George Elliot

Lovely photo.
The standard set of earplugs available at K-Mart drown out the sound of grass growing pretty well but not the squirrel heartbeats. Thank goodness for all the barn cats to keep the squirrels away.
Looking forward to honing my vision and feeling this summer. I can almost hear that grass growing now...
