I know a little girl,whose hair in ringletsfalls, unkempt from lackof brushing; who standswhen she should be sitting;who laughs with defiance whenchallenged, her dark eyes gleamingwith mischief; who holds her chin uphigh and stamps her feet, arms foldedin protest when she does not get her way. I see that little girl,have watched her play,with a […]
Ask me how I’m doingand I’ll say “fine”, notbecause I’m actually fine,but because “fine” is the onlysocially acceptable response. If I said that I have been lyinghere, for three hours now,willing my body to move,that would elicit unsolicitedadvice and tarnish my “fine”. I’d berate myself for breakingmy promise not to moan,knowing that complainingprovokes a compulsive […]

One Woman's Quest II 
Our caveman/woman history still resides within I’d guess … back then, when most took shelter in some sort of hole, there must’ve been also the ones who didn’t like being cooped up, who wished to be out under the stars or clouds, exploring with eyes as well as imagination. Your post has me questioning my preferences — I like both — if I HAD to choose, probably I’d hole up in a smallish cave. Maybe shaped like an Airstream …

I thought of something…check out my latest posting on my blog page. Do you and your husband do the “geocaching” hunts?

I responded on your blog – that photo is exquisite. We are both mobility challenged, so don’t geocache, but I went with my daughter in healthier days – such a great idea.

Interesting thoughts. The unseen is intriguing…a desire to know more is within each of us…it pushes us to explore and ponder within our minds and within the physical world to discover.
I was thinking about the light and dark in your photos…can there be light without dark…can there be dark without light? Within dark holes and crevices, worlds of life exist…life that may not even be aware that we exist, if we’ve left their spot alone.
There’s a canyon in Colorado that in the spring…at just the right moment of the sun in the day, one can see writings left hundreds of years ago upon the wall…once the sun has moved just a bit, you can’t see it. Pretty amazing…did the authors know that their writing would be hidden for the majority of the time? I searched for the name of it…was almost sure it was called Picture Canyon…but when I looked that up, it doesn’t look right….
