this afternoon, deb and i were talking aboutpeople being like rivers... always changing...
every molecule, every moment...
so i made this piece...
thoughts lately are like butterflies...
they never stay in one place, they move quickly
in and out of my mind. by the time i grasp a thought,
it has flown away...
"have you ever tried living with yourself?
if so, you will begin to see that yourself is not a static state,
it is a fresh living thing. And to live with a living thing
your mind must also be alive. And it cannot
be alive if it is caught in opinions, judgments and values."

g shanti, thank you! sometimes it's more like a creek though with a little dam for them to get stuck... but the more i let go, the more the river flows...
