Excerpt of a letter to a friend...

8 days. I thought of that today. That's really amazing to me. I feel like I'm in some kind of self motivating, self generating, self directional vortex. I can still breathe and see everything around me but there's a kind of whooshing that's not exactly a sound. It's just an energy.

I stopped at Blue C for sushi dinner (this is the time I allow myself to eat rice) and picked up a copy of a permaculture magazine to read while I ate. Here is what the first thing I read said...

"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work, and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea." Antoine de Saint-Exupèry takes me beyond the horizon of day to day concerns and obligations and into the expanded world of dreaming. Permaculture can be earnestly serious, and it does need to be practical, but is also about dreaming a new world into existence, a world that our waking minds cannot yet fully imagine.   ~Maddy Harland - editor of Permaculture

I have feet in a couple of worlds. Balance would be the key. I guess it always has been.

In 8 days my house will close. Today I put an offer on the land in Sequim. Magical land with a place to build my home. Sanctuary land. A place for friends and family to gather. A place for solitude. A place for me to grow old. 

The new blog is coblove.blogspot.com As time goes on the journal of the unfolding imagination/dream of this place will have entries about it, as I have time. April 4th is my last day at work. I imagine after that there will be more posts. We'll see. 


Oh, and I've decided on a new tattoo. It's the Medicine Buddha Mantra written in Sanskrit. To not only eliminate the pain of disease but also help in overcoming the suffering of attachment, hatred, jealousy, greed, and ignorance.
