Every one of us has a way to follow… We some times get lost in our own way… have become used to what we do and the way we do it we loose the sight that opens our eyes to alternative opportunities… This is especially true when passionate… We wish others to appreciate our efforts… yet we have forgotten they to have efforts… that they get lost in becoming invisible is one of those efforts… to be knot seen… I am fond of saying that I am an illusion… It is because I have learned knot to be a full picture… the words I write allow the reader to form their own picture of me using their imagination… In the past when I have filled inn those blanks their has been difficulties I was ill prepared to deal with… Today there is knot one who still corresponds to me… All having left without a word… over time I have come to the conclusion that eye was unable to sea the path I was on well enough… I was lost in my own head… captured by my own thoughts… I forgot about the others I was suppose to be watching over… and the more I grasp to hold on the more difficult it was… until I could do nothing write… and my words fell on deaf ears…
Sharing is what we do when we open our minds, hearts and souls to those we write to… In the words are the pieces of the puzzle that is each of us… My mind plays out here quite readily exposing who I am… yet there are gaps that the reader wishes to be filled in… and questions must be answered… Patient I never was yet I have found some now and I do sit with a calmness until asked before answering or deflecting… Usually I speak in rhyme or reason… allowing the reader to grasp from the unfolding words the message of who is behind the mask of words… some times that plays out and some times it frustrates… either way it leads to a place where questions are asked and answers must be given… Sew I learned to answer them when asked…
At times we all wander free of ourselves wishing and hoping for some change… Our minds play with the what if questions over and over… to fill the void in time we imagine places other then the places we know… The road does not end… it is lined with places to stop along the way where we can peek inside to in joy the wonders of what we see… to me there is delight in knowing that there are others who wander the same path invisible to be until they appear and walk with me for a time… The process of sharing thoughts opens ones mind, heart and soul… and there they find passion, desire and maybe love… but it is a love of life that is there in the sharing… a love of a cultivated art… As we wander the course of any particular rode we each wander off to in joy the off shoots returning when we are finished with that wonder… having learned so much along our ways we are filled with perceptions and notions… and it is some times interesting to break free of those illusions to stand in the path of uncertainty and let the tide of change pull us before spying an alternative and grasping hold… ride the wave and let the hand of fate open your eyes to the illusions you dream about… We share of who we are in each peace we send… there are flowers… there are scents… there are illusions in each other’s eyes… yet they all play their part in the imagination that blooms within… what if thoughts pop into our heads and swirl about… and we play with them like butterflies on a summers evening fluttering from one delicious flower to the next leaving a bit of each on the next and the next… we are those butterflies that inspire thought… reaction and action… we are the cause and the effect… the beauty and the beast… we are the reality and the illusion… it is important to have both… to hold both… to allow both to exist within the one…
It is important to take time each day to do for who we are… religiously we toil at what drives us… letting go of the needs we have to serve others while the needs within stir we ignore them lost in that message of it being some how virtuous to suffer in the service of others… In time the effects of such things play out and we fall to the side… and wonder where has the Godde of our Father left us…? I have sat in that fire myself awaking in the aftermath of a deluge of faith… hearing for the first time that there is time in each day for thee as well as for those you serve in my name… From that moment on time has always been there to sit with me until I have done the art that opens my heart, mind and soul… freeing me to do what is before me…
The winds of change blow cold in the wintry mix of time… a frost covers the world we live in nestled in our blankets shivering against the artic blast of winter and temperatures in the numbers below the range of zero… In these off times when move mint is slow and our minds have time we get to slip… slide and push away from the reality and dream once more… My dreams are often wanderings in past times before they are pulled forth to wonder in the now and yet to be… I some times get lost in the sentimental forest and loose sight of where I am going over come by the emotion of it all I sit with tears running down my face… I was there to shake others free but who shakes me loose of the forest… of my own fears, anger… my emotional wave… some times we hold the key and some times the key is held by those we cherish with all our hearts for it is with them that we can be truly ourselves with nothing hidden… I have found and lost such wonders in my life… each one held a gift that gave more to me then I could have possibly given in return… but they are gone from me now so the message is that I have learn to do what I must and there fore the teacher leaves to wander forth… and the student wither grows with them or is left behind… to search for their way among the roads they have yet to traverse…
I have successfully hidden myself in the shadows once more… It has taken a long time to find my way in the forest of trees that line the path I have chosen… I pop out some times and in as quickly leaving most of what I write as silent prayers that others may one day realize but that is at a time when my words will fall silent in the night and be heard knot by the ears but only by the heart and soul… We are only truly missed by those willing to take the time to miss us… the rest only notice when they pause in busy nests as an after thought… at that point they are much to troubled of mind to reach out across time and space to us… or to any one for they are truly alone…
Words are to some the tool of the artist within… they are spun with creativity and influence the process that one uses to decide… to please and to defend ones choice of life… Often in life words strike us forming an illusion that creates a sensation that lingers… it is best to use our gifts to reform this illusion into a correct picture as soon as we are prepared… Some times it is time that will alter the picture and some times we must speak to alter the image that has made its way into our minds… Each time we speak we add to our artistry and learn how to use gifts we are… experience the greatest of all teachers shows us the way and if we are unsure enough we will remain aware and conscious of how our words are reforming the original image… In this way we clarify the space between and open our world to continued possibilities…
Each passage has a meaning in it to those that read it… what one takes from the passage is a direct reflection on who they are and their experiences in life… Time was when I could stir the pot and get any type of reaction… now I prefer to allow the energy to find its own way… There are labels on the doors and directions to follow… passages to continue down and around… there are figures of speech and terms to learn and unlearn as we go… Yet each use defines us some what and even when we cat lick or we he brew of we prop the stand we define our selves… A shift from won side to an other won side is a leap of faith in a hope to land on a softer spot knot wanting to be tied down… we carry the pillow with us… stuck to our extremities to shield our bottoms… we land and we are helped up but as artists are we faith filled to our dance or are we still in desperation searching for the dance…?
Take the path and walk it with patience… for each dream has a beginning… a middle and eventually an end… Fate has shown you that there is possibilities before your eyes… in joy keep them close and let go the ties that bind one… for one is kept by cutting the strings away and allowing them to wrap theirs with yours… there is a wish we shared… an experience where the energy of mine washed with the energy of yours to form a blanket of warmth that still rests within you… this is of what I write… creating the tapestry of a relationship is a spiritual combination that requires free drums for the mind to create its artistry… the Rose grows in fertile grounds and is being cultivated with inner desire, passion and exterior love such that she glows so bright her delight filters across the earth and tickles my feet… even in the fog of a Saturday I feel the heat in the shadows… The rose is a strong flower though delicate in nature… The best is yet to be…
One can hide behind the words that play before them… The mind remaining silent allowing the words of another to define them… we often find exact words in songs or readings of religious text to define our place in time… when we allow that to over ride our art then we fall into the trap of believing we are less then the artists we are… for in a spiritual sense it is our words that hold the most meaning not the words of others that we define our sense with… but our interpretations of these experiences… What is in a word is as important as the many ways it can be used to turn a phrase this or that and the path we choose to use it in… I am at a loss for the words and they flow like rivers… either way we are connected to them as a way of expression of self expression… it is our art that is sought after… let it play out in the joy of time…
