Today I ... Gentleness behind the Lens

Today I'm feeling a bit fragile and lacking energy... this feeling is not new to me,
an old bed partner you might say, for sometimes that's where I retreat.


I have been asked in the past if I suffer with ME...
I don't think so but as long as I remember energy has always been lacking
especially after some event like last weekend ~ our female communal birthday party.

So I need a soft spot to linger and just Be with it, knowing it's just a wave from my ocean of being.
What helps is to gently let-go of any expectations of myself, go where the pace is slow, grounded and
loving, to me that's where my camera is, I can enter another world behind the lens.

A world that supports, nourishes and feeds my spirit like no other... today I'm finding a gentleness behind the lens tomorrow it will be something other... but always behind the lens it is my way of expressing,
my art.

Morning has Broken

Yesterday the black dog came to visit me, the same black dog who  used to visit Winston Churchill. When my daughter came around, she could  see the black dog had turned up too and  that I was completely at his mercy. She made her leave with a simple kiss and goodbye,  "hope he goes soon", I nodded in agreement. For when he's around he completely  demands my attention and there's no shaking him loose! On retiring I sternly told the black dog I didn't understand the reason for his visit and that I thought I had sat with him for long enough  and to be gone in the morning! *** I've not seen him so far, this morning thank goodness !!! It is the beginning of a brand new day,  I am grateful for each day of my life...   I was at a funeral on Friday,  to say we'd anticipated a sad day all turned out most beautifully.... my favourite hymn was sung 'Morning has Broken' On this brand new day I'm sitting here tapping the k...

My Silken Altar

The reflective image below is one taken of my south facing window,  which is more like an altar to me because of the ever changing light that allows for embracing the moments of silent connection and praise. I take many photographs from this window as I marvel at the sun's energy  to illuminate or in this case reveal through shadows and reflections. This image has been sitting in my file for sometime, it has a hidden message for me that  I knew would one day surface...    Heart broken open by the mystery of you... love stitches together.  Gentle love rides pain like silken thread slips through jute spring balm for raw edge. Stitch with silken love the polarities of life  embrace the mystery... Sending to Rebecca for healing... Haiku my Heart Recuerda mi Corazon
