Light Returning
In the Northern Hemisphere, we love it as daylight gradually becomes extended again.
Happy Newest Year!
I have a New Year's Message for Everyone~
* "Receive the flame of eternal light, may you always smile, being at the peek of your health and happiness, and be blessed."
Recently I had a dream, someone whispered to me, "Are you mentally stressed?"
How did she know? I had put on an outward calm manner. The friend read my mind in a dream!
Even worse, she continued, "What are you going to do about it?"
"I don't know," I thought weekly, knowing the dream friend was reading my silent word answer. Then I slowly woke up intending to have a gentler day and everyday.

Living Light
In the morning, the phone rang, shaking me out of my daydream, a friend called to chat. "I need some blue light!"
At that instant, I turned and saw sunlight reflecting blue through mason jars filled with water. I quickly took photos knowing that the light was only fleeting and "must take picture now~" while talking.
The swirls of light have a relaxing energizing hypnotic effect.
I told my friend about the
light~"Oh! I have a blue mason jar and the light will be coming through
the living room shortly, I'll put it on the table! Just what I need
right now!"
Total Eclipse of the Clock
Clouds of light brushed over the "time" of day.
Later, in the afternoon, I glimpsed "bricks and mortar" in the living room. The light hit the sandstone and lit up the mortar with a soft turquoise color. If you look closer, you can see ancient figure-like forms painted in the rocks with the light of nature's paintbrush. Animals are here! Or maybe birds~or sea creatures?
I take a visual break and look out the window. It's a cookie cutter world out there as the evening light pours over the snow covered rooftops, just like Edward Hopper would have painted them in pale lemon, lilac and candy pink hues.
I thought about Claude Monet's painterly way of creating multidimensional realities with ever changing effects of light and shade.
What about William Blake's visionary poetry, color and light?
Evening begins to deepen, and I spot the last shaft of sunlight splash over a dish of rocks and minerals in the kitchen. Surprise! The light photographed blue! How did that happen?
The next morning I spy sunlight shifting over the oven timer, the feeling of infinity is present in the purple blue split of the beam of light

Chasing Feathers
After the post called Luminous Feather a comment came to me about the book Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah by Richard Bach, author of Jonathan Livingston Seagull.
* On the book's cover is an image of a blue feather floating in a cosmos of black velvet sprinkled with stars.
Here we see a white feather reflecting pink and lavender tints.
* According to Wiki, the book, Illusions by Richard Bach, has no page numbers. I like that!
Let's open it.
"The book will open to the page on which the reader may find guidance or the answers to doubts or questions...."

** Walking the Joyful Path
One Perfect Day
On November sixth of this year, a magic day, we headed to the beach. We had plans to go the week before, but clouds and mist rolled in. The sun was warm and bright today, best yet, there was no wind! Even in summer, there is usually a breeze, sometimes gusty. What a purely joyful unhurried experience, feeling fully present now.
My feet touched the boardwalk, smooth and grey, I love the feel of aged wood beneath my feet.
What's That? I almost didn't see it~
I stopped to view a blur of white light. It was a pure white gentle feather, waiting for me! I carefully picked up the little feather, untouched by rain, grit, or sand. A freshly shed gull feather, what luck! There were no other feathers visible.
I placed the feather carefully into my pocket and continued to "beach walk."
"Bluer than Blue."
It was so blue that day, I could feel the light~
As we turned toward the South, I saw flickers like diamonds dancing on the shore, so many sparkling jewels, brighter than bright. The "sun" was at my back but reflected into the camera...a corona of light.
Facing North, blue flickered near shore, caressing the rocks and sand. I felt like I was alone, yet not alone, part of a prehistoric landscape.
I spotted a flock of seagulls in the far distance, lined up and facing West.
Home Again
I retrieved the perfect feather and spread it out absorb its beauty and perfection. I remembered my friend, Louise, who helped me discover myself.
White Feather may mean "spirit" and often has a personal meaning for each individual according to Native American Wisdom Teachers.
Later, I placed the feather into a small metal box for safekeeping. When I turned the box over, on it was written The Road Less Traveled. There was a painted drawing of a tour bus with seabirds flying.
Definitely~

Shake Up Your Schedule
This year we are celebrating Thanksgiving in our home over several days, taking time to enjoy Holiday Treats but not all at once. Last week we cooked the turkey and froze it in small portions to eat as needed. Then some food gifts appeared. One was a pecan pie made with real old fashioned ingredients like butter and eggs and brown sugar, not to mention the plump tender pecans. The pie was not too sweet yet it was nutrient rich, part of a hardy meal in an earlier era. We enjoyed the pie for two days, a little bit at a time.
Next gift was some homemade sausage that, when cooked, scented the house with the aroma of hickory smoke, garlic and spices. This dish took me back to the forests foods I experienced "way back" as a child where the autumn aroma of falling leaves peppered the landscape with memories along with simple food cooked over wood fires.
And, best yet, we are still celebrating: Thanksgiving is Everyday~
