“In the universe, there are things that are known, and things that are unknown, and in between them, there are doors.”
—William Blake
The door, the threshold, the liminal.
Living, religion, spirituality.
Foli, rhythm of life, the dance.
Blue moon, bright moon, super light.
Dawn, satellite, family of deer browse into sight.
Liminal light.
A time when apparent boundaries soften.
Breath. Skin.
Where do I end and you begin?
It was time of the Blue Moon, also called by other names such as the Sturgeon Full Moon. I wake up early so capture both night and day.

HE DREW a circle that shut me out—
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle that took him in!
Interesting isn’t it? What it takes to draw a circle that draws him in? Reminds me of the following scripture:
He said to him,* “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.
38This is the greatest and the first commandment.
39k The second is like it:* You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
40* l The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”
Matthew 22:34-40 from https://bible.usccb.org/bible/matthew/22
It is a theme that keeps on coming up, LOVE and character.
A little something I wrote today early morning in my delight. We have been experiencing a mini drought and I suddenly heard the pitter patter, smelt the change in the air, felt the difference!
Rain!
Liquid refreshment
Satiating parched earth while
Birds chirp morning songs.
I grow every day, in so many ways.
I shrink in a few too!
I discern as I pray and contemplate;
I begin each ‘morn anew.
When there is heat later in the day,
Early outdoor work is the way.
Was working on trimming the low hanging from that tree,
Discovered a bird’s nest just waiting for me to see.
Steam rising from cuppa’ chai
Untouched snow from home across the road….downhill…
Miles and miles as far as the eye can see.
A Friday of beauty,
A day of unparalleled whites.

Stop, Go, Cross Legs, Turn Left Right-
My Life is Dancing
Dancing is not just for the club dance floor, or just to the music of a song. Check out this dancing cop and then take a turn, taking dance where you work, where you play, everywhere you live today.
‘Tis wonderful to wake to such a weekend morn:
Sun rises over quiet landscape – no cars or people in sight.
Fall in her riotous colors – leaves creating their dappled patterns of light.
Oh!
Chirps, squeals, peeps?
Life waking up alright!
Happy Saturday!
For all those people who stick out from the crowd. All those who sometimes wish that it was not so.
Being normal is not anything like what some claim it to be.
After all…
“If you’re always trying to be normal, you’ll never know how amazing you can be.”
Maya Angelou
