We are in
“monsoon” season here where we are supposed to get thunderstorms and showers
every afternoon or evening. It’s very
localized, so sometimes we do and sometimes we don’t. But Saturday evening, before dark, we
happened to get one of the “monsoons” J The
thunderstorm and rain swirled around us, leaving all the screens and windows
covered with rain and raindrops. The
neighbor’s motion sensor light was on in his side yard. So I grabbed my camera and caught these shots
of light through the raindrops.
I completely lost any sense of self with its issues, and
was just in the moment, enjoying a "sabbatical" moment.
“…drink the pure silence.”
”…let your ear teach you
which way to listen.”
which way to listen.”
“…wait without waiting;
as if it were dusk.”
as if it were dusk.”
and “…look into light falling,
in deep relief…”
in deep relief…”

ReplyDeleteAwwww shucks :) That is so true - the world stands still from behind the lens - and we become silent and focused - acutely aware of the magic that is right in front of us... Hugs...

ReplyDeleteThanks Tracy... Well, "sabbatical" has turned into "sabbatical moments" - just taking moments during the day to find that inner place of deep rest into Silence... :)
