If a church represents the efforts of the devout to invite God to join them in a place created by people, then a forest is a place where God already resides, and people can choose to recognize or ignore his presence. Steve Olson

Bottom line, be careful drinking hot coffee...

I place on the altar of dawn: The quiet loyalty of breath, The tent of thought where I shelter, Waves of desire I am shore to And all beauty drawn to the eye. ... May my mind come alive today To the invisible geography That invites me to new frontiers, To break the dead shell of yesterdays, To risk being disturbed and changed. May I have the courage today To live the life that I would love, To postpone my dream no longer But do at last what I came here for And waste my heart on fear no more. John O'Donohue Excerpt from, ‘A Morning Offering’ BENEDICTUS

I lied and said I was busy. I was busy; but not in a way most people understand. I was busy taking deeper breaths.... I was busy silencing irrational thoughts. I was busy calming a racing heart. I was busy telling myself I am okay. Sometimes, this is my busy - and I will not apologize for it. Brittin Oakman

The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity... and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself. William Blake

More conspiracies...

It is sheer madness sometimes, but often, madness is needed to separate the winners from the losers. Ari Gunzburg ( ... the road from the White House )

You do it because it just makes common sense. We all need to put down the idea of my personal freedom and just do it for the good of the communities freedom. Wear a mask when you should.
