I am awake before six, a bad dream about a good friend or well someone who used to be a friend but then that is why I had the dream. I think it will be a good morning for a walk to the park, the birds are singing. I lie awhile longer thinking of the [...]

Red Raspberries

The sun is shining and after two days of it the red raspberries are starting to ripen. The long slender and lithe brambles bending down and touching the earth with the weight of the red berries. I pick off a handful and eat them, checking each one carefully for a worm. I have found only a [...]

It has rained so much this spring, it has reached a point of enough already, at least for this human being. The plants however are pretty happy. I have never seen the lavendar in my garden so wonderfully healthy and bright. I love lavendar the way it smells, not like pine, but like some earthy [...]

I have this plant that I have posted pictures of previously called evening lichness. It is a bright pink hot fuschia really flower on a soft fuzzy pale almost whitish green but almost blue stem.

And the sun comes out today. It has rained so much this spring, to the point of flooding in some areas. Just absolutely poured cats and dogs. After several days of it the sun has finally come out. The garden of course loves the rain, it is a veritable jungle. It has also brought out [...]

The other day I took my daughter around to take some items to Goodwill, and since she is a teenager without a job and I am a mother who is feeling not so indulgent because of it, she also took some of her books to the used book store , and CD’s to the record [...]

Words are not coming to me today. This thing right now is hard too speak of. I know what is in my heart and in my own mind. But it is a very difficult thing to put down, to express. Maybe some things are better left unsaid.
All I can think of is that song from [...]

So what is good and what is evil. Is there a continuum of good and evil like a number line? Is there infinite evil and infinite good?

A rose is a rose is a rose, a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. What is this new thing? And what is this old thing? Vying each for a rightful place inside my inner most being. I am wrenched apart and wound tight. What is this thing? I want, ache, need [...]
