my friend John Nelson, who has an exellent blog, www.jrnelsonphoto.blogspot.com, gave me some good advice regarding editing. he was referring to my post of the moon images, and he was absolutely correct. "be ruthless with the photos," he said, really only put what you really like. so i am taking his advice and putting only one photo here. i took it on my recent visit to bermuda. it interests me because i can construe it in many ways, but primarily, i am watching myself. and there are two of me going forward, the observed and the observer. in the end the journey is our own and our greatest gift is the potential for awareness. to live in this gift requires ruthless editing. it requires honesty of oneself that can be hard to look at. and finally it requires love. the te amo kind. and so here we all are, going forward, ultimately with only that to focus on.
i am grateful, deeply grateful, to all of my people who have my back and put out their hands to catch me when i falter . you know who you are and i hope you know that i am there for you in just the same way.
and, Dick, where ever you have gone you will always be in my heart. We will miss you sorely down here. i love you so, honey.
te amo, te amo, te amo!!!
