i gave her White Tara when i deliberately disrupted her home a couple days ago. i'll tell the truth; my intention was to
scoot her into a jar and take her outside. but it was not to be. she has constructed her diorama perfectly so she can
instantly disappear into that crack.
she has chosen to stay in this particular place. her spiderly intention is no less than mine. i accept her as equal. and
as i write that, i wonder what her sense of it all is?

    this picture is so beautiful grace, and for some reason touches me deeply. tenacious and determined to stand her ground. she must feel it there for some reason of her own.i havent been around much at all, anywhere… much is shifting in my life and its a bit too much for the moment… so i am taking it moment by moment.xox

    My mother had a spider for several months that she just left there until it moved on…she said it seemed like the right thing to do. Im not sure what Jude said in the recent class…but Id guess that this is another form of touching edges (shes talked about that on her blog at times)…the edges of worlds.
