Nov 9, 2009, "Life shimmers in Shades of Becoming "

" Inviting Silence"

... It is a paradox , that we encounter so much internal noise when we first try to sit in silence

...It is a paradox that experiencing pain releases pain

... It is a paradox the keeping still can lead us so fully into life and being

...Our minds do not lke paradoxes, we want things to be clear, so we can maintain our illusions of safety. Certainty breeds tremendous snugness.

... We each posess a deeper level of being, however, which loves paradox. It knows that summer is already growing like a seed in the depth of winter , it knows that the moment we are born, we begin to die. It knows that all of life shimmers, in shades of becoming, that shadow and light are always together, the visible mingled with the invisible

...When we sit in stillness we are profoundly active. Keeping Silent, we can hear the roar of existence

...Through our willingness to be the one we are , we become one with everything ! ... "

Nov 3, 2009, ♥ Alice in Wonderland- Illustrations by Arthur Rackham Down the Rabbit Hole

Alice in Wonderland- Arthur Rackham Down the Rabbit Hole

" ... Down the Rabbit HoleAlice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice "without pictures or conversation?"

So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure of making a daisy- chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.

There was nothing so very remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so very much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!" (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat- pocket, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge. .."

Nov 3, 2009, ♥ Manhole Covers- a Photo Prompt at Milliande Art Community for Women

Photo Prompt by Bonny - at Milliande Art Community for Women~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Manhole Covers

We all walk over them or even around them and don't particularly take much notice of them. Yet every city has them. Some of them can be works of art in their own niche.

What are they? Manhole covers!

They cover up the holes city workers use to access water pipes, drainage systems and sometimes underground communication wires.

I would like to invite people to walk out in their cities or towns and look down for a change.

Post any interesting Manhole Covers in the Collaborative Image Library

. Happy hunting :)Bonny

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

enjoy looking forward to seeing manhole covers of your area of the world :-)...milliande
