{"about":"Loose your tongue. Let furl the words that keep your mind in spells. Chase mystery. Embrace the unknown. Don't be afraid. That above all: don't be afraid.

I am a forest and a night of dark trees but he who is not afraid of my darkness will find banks of roses under my cypresses

“You can do it like it’s a great weight on you or you can do it like it’s part of the dance.”

Poem 1087 - Prayer to Earth to Heaven

  From the small plants that cling to a rock\n  and make a microcosm of the rainforest,\n  to the largest trees,\n\n  from the dullest bird\n  to the most colorful tropical parakeets,\n\n  from all the little creatures,\n  to me,\n  life\n  resplendent \n  see;\n  in my mind's eye, I perceive.\n\n  A long-forgotten word finds again an old friend.\n  A call out to a bird across the dale and den.\n  A crystal of ice on a snow-capped peak.\n  The deep blue ocean finds what it keeps.\n\n  And all the little creatures, see,\n  from me,\n  to the dullest bird,\n  and the brightest rainforest parakeet!\n  I see\n  life resplendent, me\n  in the mind's eye, I perceive.\n\n  Never forgotten what was heard,\n  never begotten to the earth.\n  Calculated paradoxes\n  turning in the circles of the sky.\n  More mysteries than you or I.\n\n  In our mind's eyes:\n  find and seek, hide and keep.\n\n  In the earth, forgotten earth, always earth:\n  human beings.\n\n  Blessed be the little creatures in the sea.\n\n  Blessed be love and you and me.\n  May we forget all that was known.\n  May we remember all we know\n  and find the peace\n  that in souls' breath sleep\n\n  forgotten dreams \n  come out to speak.\n\n  And on this earth, to weep and seek,\n  we keep together till we fleet, to the heavens, darting deep \n  into the mysteries of the bleak,\n  And find what on earth we had seeked.\n\n  This I pray your soul to keep.\n  A promise to the future:\n\n  LEAP!\n

The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love — whether we call it friendship or family or romance — is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other’s light. Gentle work. Steadfast work. Life-saving work in those moments when life and shame and sorrow occlude our own light from our view, but there is still a clear-eyed loving person to beam it back. In our best moments, we are that person for another.","created_time":1686839582,"created":"2 years ago","id":"keepamovin","karma":7630}
