“Living in Sydney, I've taken the chance to start surfing again. One of my best memories of growing up is catching my first proper wave and surfing across it and my brother cheering at me from the shore.” FirstsMemoriesChanceGrowing UpTakenGrowingBrotherWaveMy BrotherShoreCheerSurfingCatchingSydneyBest Memories Author:Markus Zusak
“At first, when a child meets something that scares him, the fear grows, like a wave. But when he goes into the water and swims - gets used to the water - the wave grows small. If we pull the child away when the wave is high, he never sees that, never learns how to swim and remains afraid. If he gets a chance to feel strong, in control, that's called coping. When he copes, he feels better.” IfsFeelsFirstsChildrenUsedStrongGrowsWaterChanceRemainsWaveSwimScareFeel BetterCoping Author:Jonathan Kellerman
“All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.” WorldLittlesMatterSeemsBeautifulChanceSeaSkyLandColdEternalAnd LoveHotClimateEnvironmentalCalmWaveWoodsStormSpotsCrystalsBalloonsBeauty And LoveEternal BeautyWild WorldWorld Is Beautiful Book:John of the Mountains: The Unpublished Journals of John Muir Source: John of the Mountains: The Unpublished Journals of John Muir
