The Kelp Forest

“Shafts of light penetrate an under water salty forest

Where the submerged garden

Has borders filled and crafted by the oceans florist

Fishes of all sizes and colours glide and sail

Avoiding the predatorial teeth and claws that hide in the blue

shadows

And dart out and take the prize without fail

A white crystal sandy floor that has never seen the footprint of man

Shifts and puffs with the warm swell of the ocean

A beautiful blue topography

Who’s dramas evolve, happen and dissolve into the backdrop of

serenity

This underwater world so peaceful but hostile in the way that it

denies my stay

Lungs now at bursting point i penetrate surface tension

Wistfully wishing for gills.”

“Yes, Sangre de Cristo; but no matter how scarlet the sunset, those red hills never became vermillion, but a more and more intense rose-carnelian; not the colour of living blood, the Bishop had often reflected, but the colour of the dried blood of saints and martyres preserved in old churches in Rome, which liquifies on occasion.

Willa Cather, Death comes for the bishop.

“I’m continually inspired by nature, and the rainbow is one of nature’s greatest optical phenomenons. the sighting of a rainbow never fails to bring a smile to people’s faces. They signify optimism and positivity: with them comes the sunshine after the rain”.

O’ Wing’ed ones  
How free are thee  
Soaring ever higher  
Alert black beads glint in the sun  
Soft down fluffs up  
Thy shield against cold weather. A royal order they possess  
Strong hawks to  
Lowly sparrows.  
The large the small the bright the drab  
Together in one kingdom. Their common language  
chirps and trills  
staccato calls of "Danger"  
A simple life of simple wants  
Enough to eat. A thicket.  
And through it all, the gift of  
flight.  
With Heaven ever nearer.

“It dances today, my heart, like a peacock it dances, it dances.

It sports a mosaic of passions like a peacock’s tail,

It soars to the sky with delight, it quests,

Oh wildly, it dances today, my heart,

like a peacock it dances.”

"Remember to be gentle with yourself and others. We are all children of chance and none can say why some fields will blossom while others lay brown beneath the August sun. Care for those around you. Look past your differences. Their dreams are no less than yours, their choices no more easily made. And give, give in any way you can, of whatever you posses. To give is to love. To withhold is to wither. Care less for your harvest than for how it is shared and your life will have meaning and your heart will have peace."

To travel a circle is to journey over the same ground time and time again. To travel a circle wisely is to journey over the same ground for the first time. In this way, the ordinary becomes extraordinary, and the circle, a path to where you wish to be. And when you notice at last that the path has circled back into itself, you realize that where you wish to be is where you have already been ... and always were.

Neale Donald Walsch

“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”

“In the life of everyone there is a limited number of experiences which are not written upon the memory, but stamped there with a die; and in the long years after, they can be called up in detail, and every emotion that was stirred by them can be lived through anew; these are the tragedies of life.”

“The sight filled the northern sky; the immensity of it was scarcely conceivable. As if from Heaven itself, great curtains of delicate light hung and trembled. Pale green and rose-pink, and as transparent as the most fragile fabric, and at the bottom edge a profound and fiery crimson like the fires of Hell, they swung and shimmered loosely with more grace than the most skillful dancer.”

“Shapeshifting requires the ability to transcend your attachments, in particular your ego attachments to identity and who you are. If you can get over your attachment to labeling yourself and your cherishing of your identity, you can be virtually anybody. You can slip in and out of different shells, even different animal forms or deity forms.”
