Some Photos

 























I have been hiking, taking photos, doing pencil drawings (obviously I am copying Illustrations).  Other than that, watching The Lincoln Lawyer, and reading and rereading Jan Phillip Sendker's trilogy - The Art of Hearing Heartbeats, The Heart Remembers, A Well Tempered Heart.  Knitting also, and doing yoga, etc.

Uncertainty

This is the permanent way in which I/we - now live.  There are some things that so far continue as they always have.   Day follows night - the sun and moon continue to rise and set.  Monday follows Sunday. Shabat continues to be shabat.   We still count from 1.

The weather is no longer like it used to be.  Animal and plant life have changed - the entire world appears confused.  Will Trump attack Iran, Will Iran attack Israel, what about Greenland????? What about Gaza???  Ukraine?  We are in the hands of utterly insane men who worship power and money above all else.

It is an all consuming task to remain centered, which is, I think, the only thing to do. 

At last we have rain, of course too much - so flashfloods, sinkholes, accidents, drownings, but along with it carpets of yellow and here are the first harbingers of spring.

Happy New Year

 



I wish all a Happy New Year.   I do not expect miracles.  Peace and Goodwill to all is a nice thought, but does not appear to be realistic.  What I wish for everyone is health, and inner peace, and the ability to ride the various waves that come our way.
