Day 120: Follow

In your departure,
Watchers & dreamers salute...
Awaiting The Day...

~senryu by me

Day 119: In Time

In time we will meet,
Where infinity joins Love...
Behold...you are Home.

~senryu by me :)

Day 118: Time of Rest

There is no end to this journey,
But there is a time of rest.
A time to remember....
A time to rejoice.
A time to enjoy comradery,
And visit with friends...
Both old and new.
The Sun will rise,
And we will be Home.

Day 117: In The Light

Worry not...dreamer,
A time of Glory comes soon...
Tears of joy, not pain.

~senryu

Day 116: In The Breeze

These clouds, like my life before me...

Blow across the sky.

They are part of a system,

And are subject to the cycles of the planet.

Did they ask to be here, now?

Did I ask to be here now? I think I did.

Unlike the clouds, I had a part in it.

How can a integrate the feeling of being blown around,

And the inner knowing that I chose this?

Some part of me knows it's a grand experience,

And it'll be a laugh later...

But right now, it's uncharted territory.

I'll survive, just like all of Creation will.

And one day, we'll all be in the Light,

And we will realize this life is a precious gift.

Day 115: Cosmic Heart

I see a heart in this pic in the clouds...a representation of the cosmic heart that beats with life. :)

Day 114: Silent Watchers

Looking up at the moon between underlit palms, this is what my camera captured. These are quite magnificent date palms in the downtown area. The crown on the large one probably spans a good 25-30ft width. They really are like silient, towering watchers... :)

Day 113: Patio

This was today's view as I emerged onto my friend's patio. I'm staying with her for the time being while my place is being put back together. She has a lovely patio.

I'm proud to say that it wasn't always like this, but it has been since I helped her cultivate a green thumb and hence a love of plants and gardening. It was a barren wasteland when I met her...and had a few weeds and not much else.

It has brought her much joy, and to me also, knowing that I inspired her and gave her the confidence to make it a mini-paradise. :)

Day 112: Stop

Black and blue...that's what I see in some of my pics. Sometimes how I feel about what's happening in my life. There is a stop sign here. Maybe it's time to stop...slow down. Take a look around. Stop rushing so much. Make sure the way is clear...then move forward again. Proceed when the way is safe...dear one.

Day 111: Impression

Even in darkness and storms,

The Sun leaves its mark,

So that you may remember...

That the Light is always here.

And even as alone as you feel,

Naked and cold...

You will whither the storm,

And the New Day will arrive

In a blaze of Glory & Light.

Day 110: Beyond the Black

I turned and saw the darkness approach...
Ominous, foreboding.
It spoke of things to come.
Then I turn in the opposite direction,
And saw the darkness dissolving...
Transformed and brought into the light
By the setting Sun.
It was done as it was written.
An omen written in the sky...
The darkness comes,
But in the future...
It will be overtaken...
By the Light.

Day 109: Galloping

Not sure why...but this sky feels like it's in action...like racers in the sky...or maybe they are galloping. It's easy and relaxed, but it has motion.

Kind of like I feel...I'm moving and keeping a pace, but I still feel somewhat relaxed...

Love, A. :)

Day 108: Twilight Comes

This journey's twilight
Will arrive in glory, Light...
And songs of Angels...

~senryu

Day 107: Solitary

In this dimension,
Feeling so separated...
When will I come Home?

~senryu

Day 106: Into the Light

Wormhole, April 2010

If a wormhole opened up in front of me right now, I think I would jump in. I am not used to living in chaos and disorder...it's bothersome and anxiety inducing.

There are too many things just piling up, too many people telling me different things. Too many doubts being planted. I thought I knew something and felt good about my knowing, but then the others tell me different, and I doubt myself. Now I don't know who to believe.

At this point I really want to open my eyes and be thankful that it's all a bad dream, but I know it's not. I know I have to get through this...the way I need to...which may not be easy. I know I'm alone in this...whatever I decide...it will be me who is responsible for the outcome. I just don't know if I'm going to do it right. Make the right choices.

I just have to pray for strength and knowing...to do the right thing, make the right choices. I'm on the edge though...I hope I don't fall off...

Day 105: No Left Turn

Sometimes in life, there's no left turn. You want to turn left, but you just can't.

So maybe you wait until you can, or maybe you find another way to get where you want to go. If you turn right or straight, you may not end up where you thought you would. Perhaps the "no left turn" was for the best.

Or if you decide to wait it out, what is waiting at the end of the road may have changed and is not what you thought it would be. Life is full of choices and surprises. You just have to trust your gut whether to wait it out or find another route when there's "no left turn".

Love, A.

Day 104: Shelter

Little did you know,
That the darkness would also shelter you,
Keeping you hidden until the day...

When the Sun returns,
And takes you back from whence you came...
Where darkness is no more--
A place called Home...

Day 103: Emergence

Rest now, weary one...
The sun sets, & it will rise;
Your emergence calls.

~senryu

Day 102: Impression

With the light, even in darkness you left your mark, subtle though it was...

And beautiful it was...as it was fleeting, and oh so fragile.

Time would erase your memory from this place,

But it would live on in your being,

Where it would be eternal...

Just as you are...

Day 101: Silly Fish

This was a hungry little fish in the koi pond at the hotel I'm staying at. He is looking for a handout no doubt, not realizing I was only taking his pic & not ready to feed him...lol. Maybe we are like this...like fish in a giant pond...waiting for God to feed us something; swimming about in a human body, in a finite tank...looking for freedom, and a little gratification with something to "eat" (figuratively). Are we really free in this body...in this reality?????

Day 100: Blue Dreams

It matters not if you look into the sky,
Or into absolutely still waters...
The sky is there too...reflected perfectly.
And so you too, are reflected....
By all that is around you.
Change what is inside...friend,
And you change what is outside...

Day 99: Cotton

Cotton Candy dreams,
Dancing across open skies,
Catch me if you can!

~senryu

Day 98: Wormhole

Step into the Sun,
A Robe of Light adorns you,
One of Righteousness...

~senryu

Day 97: Reaching

You reach for the sky,
And though they have cut your limbs,
You find a way still....

~Senryu

Day 96: Sentinels II

Towering above,
Majestic in your beauty,
No one can deny.

~Senryu

Day 95: Easter Morning

Strangely it was very cool and breezy this morning looking from my hotel room balcony Easter morning. But it was a nice view nonetheless.

Day 94: Risen

Symbolic post for Easter...can you see the symbolism? The "cross", and the 3 wires...symbolic of 3 days, 3 crosses, the Holy Trinity... Happy Easter. :)

Day 93: Emergence

Though clouds may be in your midst, know that the Sun shines always, even behind gray skies. In time, the clouds will clear once again. The Sun's warmth and light are never gone...

Day 92: My Room #2

So this is the view looking out from the balcony. I seem to be capturing lots of palm trees in my pics wherever I go. :) I am becoming fond of them actually. The view is not much to speak of, but the hotel is really nice regardless.

Day 91: My Room

This is me relaxing in my hotel room. It's very nice...too bad I'm spending most of my time at my house that is all torn up right now. Still moving stuff out and trying to sort/organize it all to fit into the garage. I have WAY too much crap for one person. Time to really clean house...
