Winter!.. The Countryman, Enchanted…

Those who follow my Flickr have already learnt that I fulfilled my long-term dream of going out to ski. Frankly, I don’t think I’d get as much pleasure from skiing indoors at the Trafford Centre, so I’m glad I waited for so long. While skiing, I noted two things. First, I haven’t lost the skill; better yet I never fell! Second, as Paul McKenna teaches (and one would have to fight hard to disagree), we are already richer than we think we are. It seriously doesn’t matter that I fulfilled my dream in my native town and not somewhere in the Alps. The ability to savour the experience has nothing to do with the price of the experience.

Quotes: Francois Boucher on Woman’s Body

We must not think of a woman’s body as a covering for bones; it should not be fat though it should certainly be rounded; it should be firm and slender without thereby appearing to be thin. 

F. Boucher, a French painter
