Three Billion Years


Featured image: Rocks Along the Ogami Shore 

Canadian bedrock,
granite over 3 billion

    years old—
their
    aura
overwhelming … whispers:

    I am alive
    I am alive

She heard them.
    She felt their history.

Believe

 


Featured image: Leap of Faith III

A lack of belief in yourself makes you cling to the comforts and material possessions of someone else. What we tell ourselves determines who we are and shapes our future. Often, what we tell ourselves keeps us from becoming who we truly are.

Ask yourself:

Do I have new thoughts?
Am I walking the same way?
Am I afraid of rocking the boat?
Do I love the same way?
Do I pray the same way?
Do I have the same goals?
Do I know why I am here?
Do I knock?
Do I open?
Am I willing to change?

Live with the Wind

 


Featured image: Dancing with the Wind

Live with the wind

the summer rain

the humming of a

hummer's wings

live with the flowers in

your garden

live with the yellow bird

at the feeder

live with the kiss from the

earth

and scatter your seeds

everywhere.

Soaring

 


Featured image: Blissful Flight

Watching two 

birds soar

within the energy of an

air current.

Their movement is

wonderful, delightful, 

so glorious.  And

the beauty of it all

is that their

movement leaves

no trace.

Hello

 


Featured image: Hello Hello Hello

I sit

    alone 

    river calm

fishing rod

    in hand

early morning

    mist

sun's rays

    touching

    the dew

it matters not

if the fish bite

rather it is 

    the mornings

    hello, I

seek.

The Way I See It


Featured image: Celebrate Celebrate Dance with the Music

You are what you see. How you see is part of your spirit. Is the way you see creative? 

How I see is not a static, flat view like a photo gives us,  But,  rather, I see as a dynamic ever changing, ever creative view of life happening. It is the dynamic dance of life and sight.

I was standing under a canopy of entwined branches covered with snow.  The sun was shining through the light snow giving the canopy a stained glass feel – a very magical moment of light, life and sight.
