"This place is just a never-ending story of ways to die." Cody on the Pacific Northwest - Dual Survival

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
- Coldplay

Thinking of you Tammy. You and Chac. We won't ever forget you.

 

"I was to think of these days many times, of Jem and Dill... and Boo Radley and Tom Robinson. And Atticus. He would be in Jem's room all night, and he would be there when Jem waked up in the morning."

Those times have left places in me. Sometimes I visit those places.

"Never let who you are depend on the love of another person." Or on anything else for that matter.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

- Robert Frost

It's not that nothing matters. It's that everything is impermanent.

Everything around me has changed. But the garden that you planted remains.

-- Sea Wolf

Ever notice ...

... once in a while, while you're typing at your computer, using something like a word processor, you mistakenly hit an unintended, unexpected combination of keys ... and suddenly uncover some here-to-fore unknown feature of the software. A feature that is pretty cool. And one that you keep on using after that because it makes your work easier. That accidental set of keystrokes now becomes a standard part of your repertoire. That's kind of how natural selection works.

When the wave form is lost, it returns to its source. Ocean she was, ocean she is, ocean she will be. There is no time concept at all. Time is only in the mind of an ignorant person. In light and wisdom there is no such notion that "I am separate." All is unity, love, and beauty. There is no escape. Ignorance is gone. This moment is eternal life. This moment is nectar. ~Papaji

The Bench

Drive to the Oak Creek parking lot of the McDonald Forest. Take the Homestead Trail, which heads off west past the porta potty. You'll soon come to a bridge. Take the trail left that follows the stream. You'll come to a bench along side the stream. Take a seat.

That was the day she made herself the promise to live more from intention and less from habit.

And she said, It’s okay that you can’t get over it. Maybe you never will. Maybe that hole will never fill. She said, Maybe your learning to leave it empty is the meaning of your life.

~Heather Harpham

The birds have vanished down the sky.
Now the last cloud drains away.
We sit together, the mountain and me,
until only the mountain remains.

There is nowhere else to go. But there is another way.

Take care

Take good care of your body, mind, spirit and relationships. They are the only things of value you will ever have. Everything else is transitory and replaceable.
