Despair is Invisible

July 10, 2010

I am on my way soon to a memorial for a family member who committed suicide. This is of course a somber occasion, and we all have the challenge of the shadow that suicide casts when it is the cause of death. Suicide is a classic elephant-in-the-living-room, right. An additional dimension to this shadow is [...]

Against a tide

July 7, 2010

This evening we talked of things we did as kids. Something in the conversation got me to remembering a time when I was about eight and my family was out on Puget Sound in our old Chris-Craft cabin cruiser for one of our weekend wanderings through the waterways. We’d stopped at some little cove and [...]

A walk on the beach

May 25, 2010

Didn’t feel too energized for a walk, so Tiberio swung by and drove us to Golden Gardens, so we could just park and look out at the water. Ended up going for a little stroll anyway, talking about what do we want to be when we grow up. Middle-aged angst; you’ve heard of that, right? [...]

A Walk in the Park

May 22, 2010

There were scads of people at the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks today with their big-a*s SLR cameras, and not a one of them was pointing a lens toward the same subjects as I. I wonder why that was. (A click on the image will enlarge it.) iPhone Hipstamatic app with John S lens and Kodat [...]

A place for pollen

May 12, 2010

It’s been awhile since I have added bits of very ordinary beauty. Found these on my walk tonight with Elke. These are ribbons of pollen, gathered at the edge of a pool in a park. Elke wasn’t too convinced of the beauty in the slime, but I saw it as floating tapestries. I bet she [...]

Dreaming. On a Mondo Scale.

April 6, 2010

The exercise is to stream-of-consciousness write down my dreams. The premise is that my un-edited self knows what I truly want. The goal is to unleash and unfurl. In case I didn’t get you the memo, speaking up for myself, asking for what I want—not my forte. So, dreaming, really big dreaming—difficult! Here are my [...]

Another one with me in the water.

April 3, 2010

I entered a pool. It was cold and dark and deep. There was a large sheet of blank, white paper involved somehow, and I descended into the water. I was not sinking, but was being pulled deeper and deeper. I knew there was mud beneath me and I was being pulled to it. But the [...]

some dreams

January 12, 2010

I had a rough night last night, did not get much sleep, and so I ended up napping about 4 o’clock. My last dream of the nap was vivid. It was nighttime and a woman (my mother I think) had thrown a baby into the lake. A friend and I stood there on the dock [...]
