“… for a reason I’d rather keep to myself”

A couple of weeks ago, more or less, my husband tok some photos of me. They were beautiful ones, he gave them to me and I was getting ready to post them on facebook and in other such places. So I opened Photoshop, grabbed my stylus ready to do what I always do - polish [...]

This is just how it is

This is just how it is

“New world is here. Life opportunities are only how uniqueness opens a space for invitations for us to graduate from being good. Beyond uniqueness is the opportunity called originality in relationship, which redesigns what can be”. Said Brooks.
Funny he should say that, I thought just now as I read it. I thought about this just [...]

Paradise on Earth

Paradise on Earth

I thought about “Avatar” last night as I walked my dog. I just saw the movie abut the beautiful paradise-planet and the wild, free people living on it, in it, with it, and I thought: if I could die now knowing that I’ll be reborn there, I would do it in an eye blink. I [...]

Imagine that a mountain is not a mountain

Imagine that a mountain is not a mountain

“Imagine that a mountain is not a mountain. Not what we see as a mountain, what we call a mountain. Imagine that a mountain is a spirit being, without physical form. Imagine that this being is bigger than the mountain you see, bigger than the Earth, bigger than the Universe. Imagine that this being is [...]

Lesson from a rock

Lesson from a rock

I walked up the mountain trail this evening. The sun has just set and mists were rising from the ocean blurring the sharp edges of stones, softening contours of blackened branches. The light was pearly and luminous and the mountains were silent.
I walked up the path, with a solid wall of rock on one side. [...]

An important piece in the puzzle – human ageing, cancer, and stem cells

On Monday, in Shtokholm, three American scientists were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Their research explains a significant aspect of the process our cells undergo as they age and die.
The long, thread-like DNA molecules that carry our genes are packed into chromosomes, the telomeres are the caps on their ends. A unique [...]

We are not so very different

We are not so very different

I walked in the mountains yesterday. There is a trail winding it’s way up a mountain side. It splits at one point, a path goes on, following the mountainside into a valley, another leads up to the very mountain top. I wanted to stand at the top of the world yesterday, so I climbed up. [...]

What is the real question?

What is the real question?

Everything is. There is a universe in the tiniest leaf, there is a whole of creation in me. I will see it, if I look.
I really enjoy my art class. The teacher begun her introduction, on the first day, by saying: drawing is not about putting shapes down on paper, it is not about what [...]

New Opening

New Opening

I am done with my life, I realized recently. It’s been coming on for quite some time, as a feeling, sensations I couldn’t see clearly. And there was trauma clouding and distorting.
But as the picture cleared, as my presence opened and the trauma left I realized that I am done with life. I am completed [...]

What’s all the to-do?

What’s all the to-do?

“Oh, come on Harry. All you mortals get all hung up over your precious souls. You’ve never seen your soul, never touched it, never done anything with it. What’s all the to-do?” said Bob the Skull, the spirit of intellect, to Harry Dresden, a professional Wizard.
Bob the Skull’s opinion popped up in my head yesterday [...]
