Making of a method

[quote="
Sorrows, trials, anger, fear, remorse, and even suffering have been just as valuable an instrument of learning to me as have gratitude, peace, joy, and comfort. I wouldn't dispel any of the former from my life even if I could.

The journeys I try to pour the most of myself into are always the ones where the walk itself is more than its own reward even if I were never to reach the intended destination.

Here is one journey of a Wilson 'Snowflake' Bentley.

'Bentley observed nature with both the eye of the poet and the eye of the scientist. Listen to what he has to say concerning the structure of an ice crystal:

"A careful study of this internal structure not only reveals new and far greater elegance of form than the simple outlines exhibit, but by means of these wonderfully delicate and exquisite figures much may be learned of the history of each crystal, and the changes through which it has passed in its journey through cloudland. Was ever life history written in more dainty hieroglyphics!"
