Sleepwalking

It's Sol's day . . . Heavy rains began last night here in TulseyTown and the Weatherfeather indicates they'll be around all day today and most of tomorrow.

Yesterday's blog had a noticeable error: Daylight Savings ended overnight last night, not tonight as published. So, if you haven't, turn your clock back an hour like I just did.

To become aware of [creation's] loving presence in our lives, we must accept that human culture is in a mass hypnotic trance. We’re sleepwalkers. All great [spiritual] teachers have recognized that we human beings do not naturally “see”; we have to be taught how...to be present to reality. That’s why the Buddha and Jesus say with one voice, “Be awake.” “Buddha” means “I am awake” in Sanskrit. – Fr. Richard Rohr

"Fine photography is literature, and it should be." – That's Walker Evans, whose birthdate is today.

Today in 1992, Whitney Houston, one of the most awarded and best-selling music artists ever, released what became her signature song “I Will Always Love You”

Life?

The flash of a firefly in the night.

The breath of a buffalo in the wintertime.

The little shadow which runs

across the grass and loses itself

in the sunset.

– Chief Crowfoot
