Ebb and flow. We will have good and bad days, simply because we are human. Yet, we can choose our mental reaction to what is happening around us. Coming back to our breathing, and slowing down, allows us to find calm in the moment. Speak less, too. We don’t need to reply to everything we hear. 🙏

May your evening be peaceful, my friends. 😊 #Cornwall #sunset #sky #ocean #calm #peace #photography

These beautiful birds are taken from a large fresco depicting a garden scene from the House of the Golden Bracelet in Pompeii. They date to the C1st AD. I’ll defer to the twitchers amongst us but I can definitely make out a wood pigeon (on the birdbath) and a swallow. 📷 mine #FrescoFriday

Beautiful Looe. The greens of the river and the surrounding trees, and the peaceful ebb and flow of the water, made this a wonderfully calm spot to sit for a while. 😊 #Cornwall #nature #trees #river #calm #peace #mindfulness #walk #life #explore #photography

x% of y = y% of x So, in order to calculate a percentage in your head it might be easier to turn it around. What is 4% of 50? It's the same as 50% of 4.
