inkTober: Chakras

within

alive and thriving

energy centers

like suns

bathing us in light

relax and open

to these places

peace and vitality shall rise

DC: Memories..... and there are so many ;-)

recently
i have been smitten with the present moment

inspired by

wanting to know how to best care for my land

so i listen

to the breeze animating the trees

and 

the beauty of flowers tilting their heads to the sun

(fairy slipper, Calypso orchid)

 

tiny fungus as they rise through the surface of the earth

in doing so

i have found myself in a deep quiet joy

that is what the present moment can inspire

deep quiet joy

and i thought (memories) of other moments in my life

that brought me present to:

 deep quiet joy

my son falling asleep on my shoulder

the colors of the setting or rising sun

a kiss

where nothing else exists

the first sip of coffee in the morning

photographing ice crystals and snowflakes

creating art

dancing

and 

dancing with a partner

(dancing with violets)

the list goes on

i love it when the past falls away

and the future is where it belongs.... in the future

and i am 

completely absorbed

in now

i feel that is the best

experience of my 56 years of life

~

it seems the presence is in this moment and in my memories

so many memories!
