the words were:

no more glancing.

If you look,   then….Look.

Stop and Look.   till you think you've seen it,  or   Enough of it,  for now,

all you can,  for now.

Make a note of this…so you can find it again when it

quivers

and says,  Come here

 

i made the best macaroni and cheese Ever in the CampOven.   I have running water.  Praying Mantis molt an average of 6 times in a lifeTime.   Molt.   like….the whole self,  dries,  cracks open and a newer, larger self emerges….the whole self….eyes,  head,  legs,  body.   6 times average.                                                                                                                                                                                       Of Course.  I will TAKE the Deb Thread.

    This particular thread, the colors of dawn and dusk; rising to greet the day, winding down to end the day…daily cycle of beginning and ending…much like seasons; how I anticipate the coming of certain seasons, and miss their ending…a blogger friend of mine calls this the “great round” and so it is because I know that my favorite seasons will circle around, time and time again…

    I am looking closer these days.. absorbing as much as my old mind will allow. I did not know that about the praying mantis. I watched a video on facebook… who makes all these videos..?!? of a person holding a bee a hornet. And pulling out of a small segment near its back end, by use of a tweezer, a big wormy parasite, and then another!! Says if left in there the parasite grows bigger and the bee explodes.. he saved the bees life! What!! Who figures these things out!! People who look closely. I love that you go outside late at night to look and absorb.
