Slow Grow

More turtles, earth appreciation, and moving cautiously, that’s about all the week has been. Yet it’s also been a bunch of overthinking, (crying) overwhelming mess. In time I guess I will not care so much, but at this time it is all that bothers me. Just people, people and their self-righteous judgements. People and whatever they think, but maybe it’s not about them. Deep inside I’m trying to see that I am a better person, and that I can change. But how do you leave the world of people and their opinions, and enter the world of the not caring about their stupid assumptions? I guess, it takes an inner strength, esteem, self-love that erases their voices out of your head and all you hear is this: I am worthy.

Okay I’m saying this all to the Internet that makes a lot of sense. Into the open plains of the Internet. Into the wired space jungle of the Internet. Okay, you get it..but people suck.

I can and I will
Earth! you amazing hunk of rock (and also you too moon)
I need all the coffees this week.
Watch out. People don’t really like you!

Slow Moving

Slow Moving

This weekend we kept dodging the turtles on the highway. One we had to move out of the road for fear someone would crush the poor guy. We had lots of rain so I guess they’re out and about and spring is ripe and blooming full.  Oh and not to mention the snakes are too ( did not replicate the snake though, or help it out of the way, but I did not run over it).

I guess the progress is going slow, however it is progress. I remain attached to my shell though, unless I need to retract. I think retracting is necessary. Then every once in a while popping out of my shell to give the ones I care about a doodle or two.

Owl and Tea

She’s saying, “Here have a cup! Stay up!”

I will hear her sometimes at night (it’s a mother owl I believe outside my window) “who who who whoo… whooo” and naturally wake up and go “it’s an owl!” And go suddenly right back to sleep.

But I had some rather potent cup(s) of green tea earlier and now I am obliged to stay up, owl dear. Dear owl, I hear you. What wisdom do you bestow on me?

I’ll let you know what she says, with another doodle later.

Sun and Moon Dance

Another doodle of the eclipse. I was in awe of the celestial dance we witnessed,  its brief, brilliant moment in the sky.

Sun and Moon Dance

Then I read this Japanese Legend:

The sun and moon used to love each other, but because of their time difference, they don’t meet. So, God created the eclipse for them to meet, so that people would know there is no impossible love.

So beautiful. Until they meet again, dance again.
