“I
felt once more how simple and frugal a thing is happiness: a glass of wine, a
roast chestnut, a wretched little brazier, the sound of the sea. Nothing else.”

The Magic of the Cities.
Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer
