The most wonderful thing to Know is that we are perfect just as we are - there's no waiting for anything else to happen or to not happen. All is Well and as it should be ~ and ~ we are Divinely supported in all ways in this very moment. This very moment is the only place that life is.



Every Good thing emerges out of Chaos

friendly dragon



I met this dragon on the trail yesterday...



... a friendly dragon and,



a cousin to our Unicorn friend whom we met several years ago on the trail at Point Lobos:



If you have been reading my blog for a while, you may remember my post in which the Unicorn appeared. I remember it and you can read or reread it here.

Something I Have Learned by Hafiz


Water
Gets poured through a cloth
To become free of impurities.

The Beloved's Name
Is a mystical weave and pattern--

A hidden sieve of effulgence
We need to pass through thousands of
Times.

From my constant remembrance
Of the Friend,

All I now say is safe to
Drink.

Something that I have learned
From the Kind Radiant One

Who drew me from the unfathomable
Sky's well

Makes me playful all day
Long.

~ The Subject Tonight Is Love: 60 Wild and Sweet Poems of Hafiz; Daniel Ladinsky, translator.

tea in starlight



I painted this one, too, by low lamplight and candle light at night. I like seeing the light in the darkness.
