   This is a moving and wonderful drawing grace:
   She does not say, she is a presence, a watcher,a guardian. She is as I imagine Caileach of Gaelic folklore would look: Quoting from Dr. Sharon Blackie’s book, Foxfire, Wolfskin and other Stories of Shape Shifting Women, She is “the old woman who is the creator and shaper of the land and has the ability to renew herself, every hundred years into a beautiful young woman by bathing in a particular lake…” But in some Celtic lands that tell this story, “if she hears a dog bark or a bird sing before she arrives at the lake,she will not be able to renew herself and will die.”

   I’ve been thinking about her quite often today. I revisited your post tonight and I think – she’s not saying anything, she’s waiting to hear what the object of her attention has to say. Maybe she’s saying “I’m listening.” I love the intensity of her gaze and the wisdom in her face.

   maybe she is saying simply, “I’m here”.
   She is of this place.
   Within.
   Studying.
