whatever else goes on with this Cloth,  this will remain.   that accidental but Perfect representation of Butterflies.

Went to work where i borrowed this cookbook.  i think i am going to eat nothing but Soup for a while.

in the small time left of the day after necessities,  i ripped and placed the harem cloth and then a cloth for the Other side where all the stitches always Show.  am thinking this Other side might be very interesting.  i like very much again the wrinkled harem cloth at the top this time and then the irregular Otherside cloth.   the scene is set.   and then i remembered an Eye as being on the Cloth i made in Magic Diaries and took it from where it's been draped on the back of the rocking chair for many months, really, almost a year.  i'd forgotten it's FEEL.  it's SUBSTANCE.  Like an old Lover, i held it, remembering.  it was never finished.  i'll work on it again now.  but i looked.

that tiny tassle made me crazy with love

all these images.  these are Spirit.   and i am wondering.  what do i think the difference is, between Spirit and the GodThing?   how do they differ in my sense of things?   Spirit is Everywhere, all the time,  waiting to be noticed.   but the godthing?,   i always have identified it as a Vast and Formless Intelligence that is forever Unknowable but shows itself on this plane with….Spirit.  and also more undeniably with butterflies.  Even as a child when i wondered these same things,  i ended up with the same ….facts…..as i have today.   if there were no godthing,  if things just Occured,  then how can we explain Butterflies?  Butterflies pollenate.  Butterflies provide food for other entities.  ok.  so they could be all yellow.  or brown.  or orange and perform these necessary functions for the well being of the whole.  or they could even be a modest combination of color and design.

But they are not.  They are such an incredibly magnificant Array of design and color beyond imagination.  Think of it.  Can you even attempt to speak of the incredible variety occuring on this Planet?  No.  

So…the question has always been for me…Why?    all i can think of is that maybe Some Thing, like a god thing,  loves, LOVES Beauty in mindboggling proportion and takes delight in that.  ??????

    Yes. there is no REASON for it other than just Crazy Love.
    Huge and Giant and Surreal Love. Love beyond any kind of
    Love we can imagine.
    Butterflies begin it for me. but then…the ocean
    beings, all their Vast Beauty. Flowers. and on.
    Why?
    it MUST be just because of some thing i cannot comprehend.

    I have a little story about butterflies too Grace! I went to the furthest most easterly point in Australia where the lighthouse is in Byron Bay and sat out on the rocks to watch the sunrise and guess who was there dancing on the edge of the rocks in the sea spray? A flock of tiny white butterflies! Why were they there? was it the annual butterflies breakfast day at the beach? I will never know… but it was totally magic.
    You can see them in this illustration for Capricorn in the Zodiac series from back in 1999

    So many beautiful images. I’m not altogether clear what they all are. The fourth one…that eye…it keeps changing from an eagle or hawk and then it becomes the eye of a rabbit.

    I love gypsy soup. Very versatile and comforting. It fills an open spot in my soul…a spot without name. Perhaps it’s the gypsy reference. Here’s the direct link to that recipe…
