12 August






I have arrived at a place in my life, mentally, emotionally, and geographically where I am at once

 in perfect and astounding wonder at my fortune

and stunningly terrified at what it will require of me.

 both flower and bud

 poised on the edge of the un-furrowed

roots sown deeply in the seasoned terrain

 petals unfurling themselves toward new skies





~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~


just a dream and the wind to carry me

and soon i will be free

  5. Blue sky and water - good illustrations for your words. I read this last night, when it briefly appeared, and then again this morning. I find myself just slightly envious of that feeling of freedom and release, when I am, at this time of life, so tethered to responsibility and need. Something to think about - thank you.

  14. Hi--Thank you for the quote by Carl Sagan, it has always been one of my favorites. He captures the essence of a Buddhist viewpoint. The photos are lovely!
