i thought a lot today, most of the day, off and on, mostly on, about All of You who come here and to the Mothership of Spirit Cloth. Who, over time, some, but some also just New, but of the same Spirit...who i
Know.
and i thought about how grateful i am for All of Us, in a world that is difficult to understand.
and i also thought about how this impossible situation i find myself in is so much the SAME as others around the world where there are Huge Differences in understanding. Huge Differences in View
how some might see the goat as a blessing. others just next door as a curse. all the while, the Goat
is just a goat. being so beautifully Goatly.
i off and on too, went out and pressed my nose into one or the other of them...inhaling deeply. No smell. and i got on my knees and put my nose to the earth they are in. and yes. there is a smell. there is a smell of scrap feed. there is a smell of dry grass hay. a smell of alfalfa stems. but their round and perfect little shit balls...no. no smell. if i dig down, under the top layers, and put my nose to that, i smell the scent of all, merging, composting into rich sweet soil.
so this is what I know. it is not what my neighbor knows. Maybe. Maybe i can understand a way to show her this.
But today and now until Easter is over, i am just hunkering down. no sign of Anything at her house today. Quiet. Still down here at our end of the road. in the past we would joke and laugh about declaring this end of the road a sovereign state. we would put up baracades and not allow passage on the road. close it off. i need to find a way to reach that person now. maybe i can. maybe i can't. but i need to try.
in the meantime, i THANK You All from my deepest heart of hearts for all you offer. All the time. Just particularly noticable right now.
Love to All of Us.....
coming and going from this today
from the Iris. all cotton or linen. i think the yarn, from Patricia, is cotton. but it could be silk. the greens began same as the blue. but i took them out of the pint jar and put them in the copper pot. Green. nice greens. but i use Deb Lacativa's greens. and so. the blue was just from in the jar with water. i haven't washed any of them yet. so more to find out. O and the bottom of that one strip that is darker...a quick dunk in the Walnut.
and the beginning. looked at scraps for the SunFlower. then invisible basted, walking stitched ~Jude Hill~ the layers together. it's good.
