• Imagine the world as you wish it to be.

    If we all dream up a better world, then it will be possible.

    For me it might be about healing the Earth and people’s relationship with the earth and with each other.

    What is it for you?

    Of course they will say you are delusional, it is not possible.

    But someone dreamed up the world we find ourselves in, and look what happened!

    It is not for everyone!

    So, dream away and lets put good vibrations in the air and water and see what can happen!!

  • The Shadow of the fishtail palm
    On my white curtain
    Swaying in a gentle breeze
    Takes my breath away

    METADATA-START

  • If the only real time is the present, and the future is only a worry and the past a goodbye, then why does it feel like a rushing stream when we look back or when we worry about all that we want to do? The moon is full one night and before we know it, it is a waning crescent and what happened on the days in between? Do we remember?

    And yet, when we can slow down enough to enjoy the moment, the present moment, it seems as though time stands still – that time is a luxury that we can swim in and walk around in. That is the best relationship that we can have with time. To see it as expansive and here-now. To see time as our friend, inviting us to be. Just be.

    Flowers know all about time and seasons and gracefully transition from seedling to flower to seed, all with a sunny smile!

  • Being PRESENT is the best present you can give yourself and the world!

  • Thumbing through a thoroughly researched book on caterpillars by David L. Wagner, I find words I have never met before that are almost poetic.

    A Story:

    A cryptically colored caterpillar walked into a bar to join her friends. They feasted on green leaves of many stripes and sizes and unique drinks made with the combined nectar of a variety of flowers.

    The Lepidopteris was is a corner arguing with his best friend about how to pronounce Lepidopteris – an argument neither of them could win.

    The loopers and geometers were learning how to dance to the beat of crickets and cicadas and were soon joined by the others.

    A typical evening at the Lotus Juice Bar and Grill on Eden Street. Something for everyone!

    Say yes to the unique individual self that you are

    in this time and space.

    You might have been here before

    and you might come again,

    but never as this particular person

    in this particular time

    and this particular space –

    ever evolving

    with our expanding universe.

    Say yes!

    To your place in the world of wonder!
