a bit of dreaming....my arm was covered with scabby burn marks, which I went to peel away and pick at the scab, and I removed pieces of scab I found the flesh beneath was healed....

today I feel like I cried 1001 tears in my sleep, no longer certian if this is how I when I first woke up, but at some point I realize, certianly before now, that there is a deep sadness, drowned then washed back to shore, drowned then washed back to shore, time to leave this sandy place take a few grain for the glass, and move on, something is missing, feels like I've lost something, something that can never be regained...you get so close sometimes, so close, patience, that's what I've lost, wait for it, timing...

sand on a beach.... moments in times.... it's not over yet....



there is no greater illusion then fear,
no greater wrong then preparing to defend yourself,
no greater misfortunate then having an enemy' -tao de ching

Whatever you have been doing that is positive keep it up. The new skin under old wounds is a common symbol of healing and change in dreams.

And it's changed my life. And now everyone who has heard me ramble on about taoism knows who to thank. You will have your book back soon, I very much have been meaning to return it to you, with many thanks. You have been a great inspiration, and certianly top my list.

I remember borrowing the Tao of Piglet oh so long ago and having a few revelations. It's tougher to make the life changing decisions stick though... cute kitty kitty ^^;;
