Reading some in that book

Home   How Habitat Made Us Human    by John S. Allen  

more to come about this.  Probably a LOT more.

And because i have a home with a Wall,  in a room for Cloth,

This can happen.  What a LUXURY.  I can look over in the early morning and SEE things.  This morning because the light was Just So,  i saw something on the Cloth that i hadn't before.  It is visible somewhat in this pic but not as it was in person at that moment…but i will look again tomorrow morning.  As the day goes along,  the light changing,  what i saw becomes invisible.  Maybe it needs to stay that way?,  this Cloth being about the Invisibles….

this one that i needed to move to this small piece of wall where Patricia's fragments usually are, needed to move so i could look at the Cloth of the Invisibles,  ….. Look.  Look how certain parts caught the Light…just beauty Full.  Again…this is a Deb Lacativa cloth…always always BeautyFull.

    Light and color are infinitely beyond the ability of a camera to record. Makes me appreciate the gift of eyes and mind to perceive their deeper reality.
    And Deb Lacativa’s cloth … I am eagerly awaiting a delivery!

    Ah! A week of catching up with goats being goats and stitching and hopes. And that little woman (bottom left of your cloth) looking out of her cave with her hand ready to do someting Useful in the world! And you Cloth of the Invisibles? I want to lay it in a frame of driftwood, tie it in on all sides with muka (the white fibre like silk from the core of the harakeke/flax).
    I love that you’re there writing Goat Notes, stitching and reading and thinking . . . how I wish we could do those three things all at once! To be able to read and stitch at the same time! What I would like even more than you being there is for you to be here and we could sit on the beach and just talk . . .all of us from all over the place . . . thins lovely community we have.

    Deb’s cloth is Beyond Beyond. She loves cloth. She loves color and
    her love brings things from cloth that are completely Magical. I
    cannot love them Enough. I cannot love HER enough.

    maybe we CAN. if we think of it that way. Maybe it is already
    available to us…there, all it would take is realizing it is SO?
    Your post on your blog made me Be There, where you are, in your
    pondering things. No less than if you were Here, face to face.
    Really. I felt it.

    Home: for me what makes a home, apart from the immediate shelter, is what we bring to it, and I don’t mean tables and chairs and beds and kitchenware. What I mean is how we bring into our home, those items that hold memory, that hold love, that we have made with our own two hands, that we have grown in the dirt, that we have collected because we were inspired by their beauty, for me, these things mostly have to do with whatever landscape I live in… When we put who we are into our home, it makes it ours and each day, the depth of our own treasures, is like discovering ourselves all over again.

    The house of sticks reminds me of Eeyore’s house in Winnie the Pooh. Pooh and Piglet took pity on Eeyore being out in the snow and built him a house from a pile of sticks they found nearby, never suspecting that they were dismantling the house he had built for himself. Eeyore, though, was delighted because his new house sheltered him more thoroughly by incorporating the love of his friends. I am going to get that book about home that you are reading.

    having a Wall is such an extreme luxury. I am forever
    grateful that daughter and i had the nerve to smash out
    the wall of this trailer there and just DO it….
    We had no idea what we were doing.

    that is really the story within Winnie the Pooh that i love.
    and loved as a very young child. All the rest, nice, but
    that story went deep into me.
    We had a record. a 78 record, that i played on the
    record player when i was 4yrs. I listened over and over
    to this part.
