The Voice of Perpetual Becoming

“They both listened silently to the water, which to them was not just water, but the voice of life, the voice of Being, the voice of perpetual Becoming.”
― Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha

This is a photo I really liked when I shot it back in 2005, in Park City, Utah. I came across the original (I-can’t-believe-I-shot-it-in-) JPG a couple of days ago and decided to clean it up a bit. It ended up needing to be cleaned up a lot. The water flowing from this fountain spout was dyed blue and the angle of the afternoon sun made it sparkle; the colors and sparkles of light in the image are as they were captured in-camera. What I had to clean up with this latest edit was the damage I had done years ago making adjustments to the original image in Google Picasa. Thankfully, I have thus far been able to learn from my mistakes, adapt and grow in the process of my perpetual becoming…

Getting My Ducks in a Row

Christmas is just 2 weeks away, and  I’ve felt guilty because I haven’t started  and don’t want to start shopping.  Although I’m getting nowhere fast on that front, I did finally get some paperwork taken care of that had stacked up on my desk. I hung the “Bah humbug!” sign my dear sister gave me on the front door, simultaneously beginning and completing my holiday decorating chores. I fertilized the orchids this morning;  their appearance reminded me yesterday that I’ve neglected to do it since James passed away in September. I started feeding his beloved “Forest Kitties” – a feral cat colony residing a mile or so from the house that he ensured had clean food and water daily over those too-few months the cancer was in remission; and portrait bookings have picked up, at least for the time being. And I’m trying to get out more to take pictures for fun – for myself; something I had neglected in lieu of the need to regroup and reorganize in solitude, prayer and contemplation. That need is still very much present, but I’m attempting to interject a bit of balance from external influences, at times with great difficulty. I need more balance to get through Christmas and New Year’s. I need it to get through today.
