Playing the devil, leaving links on mainstream blogs, sweet poison pills of truth
Ha. Little truth word bombs LTWB's.

Before the judge, I give him a wink and a nod telling him how sorry I am for committing the grave and heinous crime of being a human being. I'll never do it again your honor...I will lie 'til I die.

You're free to go son. Don't let me see you again or it's curtains.

burnie,
i love the image of the tree.
so potently alive and free of any human influence.
i too don't want to come again as a human either.

Su,
You know they talk to each other and us. I have been thinking about it. I want to write about them. For instance a Blue Spruce is graceful and speaks calmly even in a strong wind. An Aspen shivers and quakes.nervous in a breeze and they warn you of storms when the leaves turn silver. So much real connection that we walk by unnoticed.
Hope all is well.
Burnie

trees are my most favourite animals .
they hold the secrets of life.

we are moving out of winter and every tree i walk past is budding, this unveiling of eternal life. dormant, reborn, dormant , reborn.
withdraw to nourish roots, then come out again for the cycle of life and for the benefit of all.
these are the true Bodhisattvas.

I agree. Stayed up all night looking at stars trying to orient myself. Saw Uranus, Neptune, Jupiter, maybe Mars..Naked eye so sometimes I couldn't figure it out. Saw the Bull of Taurus, Orion and watched Sirius lead the dawn. The trees slept in calm air. It was a good night. The land is entering yolur pollar opposite as we head into Fall, as yours to Spring then Summer. It fills your life and makes it rich.
Thanks Su
