How Sad?
Feeling a little let down
Kinda blue
Fenced in
Downright cold and bleak
With nobody to play with
Thankfully support systems are strong

LEFT OUT IN THE COLD-
A sad scene of two forgotten bikes. When new and shiny they provided so much joy, and with so much potential to provide more joy, but forgotten and left out in the cold

RHODIES AT THEIR OWN PACE
Note: When the leaves are cold and unhappy they curl up
When they are happy – they are wide open to life and they give birth to blossom
Dedicated to Jill Ebstein who reminded me that the Rhododendrons are at their peak of life. More importantly she has observed the seasons of people and has brought together a wonderful series of essays of the seasonal ups and downs of real live people called “At My Pace” Highly recommended read!!!

The word ‘happy’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
The heart of a human being is no different from the soul of heaven and earth. In your practice always keep in your thoughts the interaction of heaven and earth, water and fire, yin and yang.

I love walking in the rain, because no one can see my tears.
