from the dream last night.  Not about clothmaking,  but about how this life is and is not.   But easily translated to the above this morning.  I don't know if i can do it or not

    it was Some dream.
    About so much, as they always are, but then somewhere in them there is
    the seed they want to give
    and in this one, first there was Alz B and i am talking with someone about how we are not doing what we need to do, we are not recording her vital signs correctly…vital signs blood pressure, pulse, respiration, temperature, but the other person is not concerned at all and Alz B is just Als B and i realize in the morning that all those vital signs mean nothing
    and then Susan the wife of Scott, the potter around here who i have noticed is losing it a little lately, theirs is a long long marriage and they are tight together some many miles from here and make their way to the farmer’s market with his pots and her weavings and they well, they are tight together and if it is true that he’s losing it, what/how will she do what needs to be done for them, and in the dream, there are of course are many people as in all my dreams, and we are going along on a path on foot and Scott is in a wheelchair with Susan pushing and i say to i’m not sure who, her?, i don’t know, but i say we need to DO something, something to Help, but the Answer, coming from i don’t know who/what is as an explanation, that it’s already taken place, all of it, that he
    is dead already, “dead” how we understand death, but that he is being let Stay with us, for us, so we can love him and love the time as it goes and it will all be just so OK.

    when i made the fiber figures i used that wire a lot…it would
    be wound or sewed in and then spiral out…twisted like a
    vine tendril…like you do so much
    these drawings are just like a second long…just so fast
    and on printer paper just to capture an image in my mind

    i love that you noticed…she does.
    She DOES have such beautiful teeth
    and how she uses them,
    often in the morning to grip my bones so softly, but
    grip them
    nonetheless
    and then her sticks and the tennis balls
    she does. she does have just beautiful teeth

    Curious to me that in your fairly solitary life, you have dreams filled with many and in your (how I have seen it anyway) daily life of creating and caretaking, where you often (even though you do DO a lot!) step back and pause and wait and sit and just look for a while (wait and see what ahppens with the goats, look at a cloth for a spell)…here in these dreams you are more of a doer, more of the concerned one that something needs to be done.
    Aside from that, the “stuff” of books I’ve not read and shelving I used to have (love those blocks and boards) and Beautiful Tay with those eyes, buds and light…it’s a good day to visit over here.

    “we are not as we understand ourselves to be”
    well… hmmm… I wake up each morning & find that I blessed once again with a new day and am still alive so I use all that I have gathered up til now to make the best of what the day brings… and that making helps me understand the world from my own little point of view, just one trace of being in a sea of beingness

    this quote echoes what you give us each day Gracw with your quiet observations
    “Every person passing through this life will unknowingly leave something and take something away. Most of this “something” cannot be seen or heard or numbered or scientifically detected or counted. It’s what we leave in the minds of other people and what they leave in ours.”

    this is HUGE isn’t it? So simple, and so GRAND!
    Lately i’ve been remembering Graces post about washing her windows. How such a seemingly mundane act was turned into a ThoughtFULL Spiritual exercise. This kind of perspective hits me as a God thing, imagine a finger thunk on the forehead!
    i love this community! First i’m grateful for Graces energy each day, presenting pictures and word gifts. Then for each contributing women, gracious with sharing insight and practice of their Spiritual path. i’m seeing an image of vibrating energy —of glorious “in tune” women! makes me SO content! Inspired! Abundant and endless thanks X
