April Photos of Bullycreek...

Dakota and I spent 3 hours at Bullycreek this evening taking our April photos for the Bullycreek project. My favorite is posted here. To see the rest click on the Bullycreek file to the left...

The Guest House...

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
Some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
Who violently sweep your house
Empty of its furniture.
Still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
For some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
Meet them at the door laughing,
And invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes,
Because each has been sent
As a guide from beyond.

The Essential Rumi

I am...

I Am
by Mary Lou Van Atta

The "I" that is me - you cannot see
You see only the form that you think is me.
This form that you see, will not always be;
But the "I" that is me - lives eternally.
