clamber clamber

"We should not expect to drink immense swallows of knowledge but just go out with our eyes and soul open. Clamber, clamber. One does not always plant one's feet daintily when one is covering rough ground." Emily Carr 'Hundreds and Thousands" pg 135

I am actually reading The Forest Lover by Susan Vreeland now. Emily Carr was an amazing woman.

this reminds me of home..as I grew up on the west coast where Emily Carr spent many years living and painting. I've even been to her house (now an historical site) in Victoria. Quite a remarkable woman and artist.

thanks!

Stumbling through the dark.

Clambering, Falling, Skinning Our Knees, Getting Back Up.

Repeat.

All together now.

That's so true, but so hard to actually follow through with. Beautiful quote.
