Welcome! I am a contemplative thinker and photographer from Colorado. In this blog, you'll discover photographs that I've taken on my hiking and backpacking trips, mostly in the American West. I've paired these with my favorite inspirational and philosophical quotes - literary passages that emphasize the innate spirituality of the natural world. I hope you enjoy them!

The deeper layers of the psyche lose their individual uniqueness until they are universalized.

 


"The deeper 'layers' of the psyche lose their individual uniqueness as they retreat farther and farther into darkness. 'Lower down,' . . . they become increasingly collective until they are universalized . . . Hence 'at bottom' the psyche is simply 'world' "

Carl Jung
