September Equinox: Fall 2020

9/22/2020

In the autumn, I gathered my sorrows and buried them in my garden… And when April returned and spring came to wed the earth, there grew in my garden beautiful flowers unlike all other flowers.

Sand and Foam -- Gibran Khalil Gibran

Here's to Autumn!

A Little of This, a Little of That

Keep me away from the wisdom that does not cry, the philosophy that does not laugh, and the greatness which does not bow before children. – Gibran Khalil Gibran

There is much that is tragic about our world. There is also much that is beautiful. To be sure, a lot of the beauty extends to beyond this world. That beauty, that joy, comes from an all-encompassing, divine love.

This blog is meant to share that joy -- poetry, religion, the natural world, art, books, music, travel, history, and other lovely, beautiful topics. I find I have no wish to focus on the sad. I do realize, by the way, that a lot of history is sad. But we hardly need for me to highlight that.

One more thing/disclaimer: Religion, you might ask? I am a religious person, so much so that I fervently believe everyone should have the right to their own -- provided, of course, that it doesn't hurt others.

It is all about love and sharing.

Out beyond ideas of wrong and right, there is a field. I'll meet you there. -- Rumi
