It is I who am blind. I have no name for my belief, no set of rules. the requisite is walking away from one part and embracing another..change. In that walking with head down scowling, one could think, why do this awful thing to yourself when you are surrounded by those who love you, by all the creatures, by beauty in so many forms.<br /><br />And you go holy shit, I don't need a prison guard for my cell, I put myself there voluntarily, I can walk anytime I want. It has taken many years to get this..what a dummy ha ha, I laugh and say thanks again for another lesson.<br /><br />Aint it grand that people from all over the world can find this common ground..it never fails to blow my mind,Burniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05969339491739732743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054926825120141854.post-23446962359259388582010-07-17T05:31:11.093-07:002010-07-17T05:31:11.093-07:00I was finally able to get on your blog, which is t...I was finally able to get on your blog, which is truly beautiful! You are an exceptional writer, and a very clear person! It’s a shame that those whose approval you would like don’t read it. I forwarded it to Zachary. I know he will enjoy it.<br /><br />I will keep reading it. I was right to begin with when I told you to write a blog long ago. But, you have exceeded even my expectations. Truly, amazingly beautiful and touching.<br /><br />Love,<br />Ellensuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01229359526524987174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054926825120141854.post-90576918418631705802010-07-14T11:20:37.127-07:002010-07-14T11:20:37.127-07:00Just read your post.

Our spring was long and enjoyable and only yesterday did we finally hit 100F for the first time in 2010- but it surely won't be the last!<br />The body has already adjusted and 72F has become 'chilly' again.... or should i say 'nippish'...<br />Somewhat inane to be talking weather, but where i live too much of it can kill you, so one pays attention to temps. and over-heating...<br />Again, thanks for your blog and thank you for being...<br />with love and respect<br />:)RaviAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054926825120141854.post-69034088445325858802010-05-11T08:38:48.764-07:002010-05-11T08:38:48.764-07:00Greetings,

Picking out weeds at first and then planting a flat of tomatoes. While I picked the gleaner cauliflower that had bolted two field cats carefully displayed the gophers they had caught, one each, before settling down to eat. After, they climbed into my lap as I sat and rested. Today, a soft rain falls. <br /><br />To bow is to honor the obvious and the subtle.

There were silent tears, there was a radiant aliveness of the skin, the ears were vibrating, and in between it all was the silent watching.<br />Absolute perfection in a larger than normal life moment.<br /><br />That red green leaf is a beetroot leaf. And that is one of George's great progency.

Every line, every image, I love your naturalness, the mix of protest and surrender, always aware what you are doing, always in the zone.<br />Did you laugh when Ganesha visited? What a trip! And is that George come back to your homestead sharing the bounty? That red/green leaf comes in a plastic clamshell box here in the US at $6 US a pound. You know we are hated for this freedom. <br />Thank you for the work you put into this creation, it is a complete success.<br />I'll be back later, town calls, but I feel the urge to reread, re-see, connect deeper/higher.<br />Love, nina<br /><br />Vword: sermatin, seraphim in the morningninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16359122650046678312noreply@blogger.com
