Childlike Simple Happiness Unlimited

NO TIME LIMIT FOR CHILDLIKE SIMPLE HAPPINESS! You know those INNOCENT, FUN times....distilled from purest ingenuousness – much like the Malt Shop Gang; School Yard Crew; College Pals; that Circle of Friends made as one starts life away from home; adventuring with Pals/Besties/Cohorts? Well that's what I am talking about. I am grateful for all those rare & wonderful pockets of Friends made throughout my life. I revel in their sweet nostalgia, grateful I had those Heart Happy Relationships. Now thinking, at 72, those times are over, and life has other experiences for me ~ Imagine my Delightful Surprise as today proved sensationally that there is NO TIME LIMIT FOR CHILDLIKE SIMPLE HAPPINESS! Up earlier than usual, in the COLDEST weather (30 degrees) I have ever ridden my bicycle, wearing more clothes I thought possible (seven top layers and 4 bottom layers including snow pants) with chemical heat packs and electric gloves along side two souls with undefiled determination to run (including, but limited to: ½ Marathons and full Marathons) focused on health, personal best, and other beneficent human actions - including but not limited to: family love peace joy friendship and a good world getting better (I would have to write a tome to describe all the “interesting” things that happened today, so I will stop here – Happy to be me with such friends who both have had their own individual personal smashing conquest “Firsts”....Health peace love friendship forgiveness mercy kindness beauty joy enthusiasm child-like-glee harmony to/for all each as is "^-"^ blank now and always........... dziękuję, gracias, 谢谢, ringrazio hanno, है धन्यवाद, remercier avoir, thank you, أشكر ديك ...

I'm In Love

- I'M IN LOVE!! -

Is it the PEACEFUL INSANITY OF LOVE or the INSANE PEACE OF LOVE?

…...............hot midsummer day of rain.................

as lover's kiss drives insane...........

with you my soul never wane …..................

without you lifelessness fain...................................

reflecting on the poem I just had written and shared with a couple friends to honor the beauty and intensity of my friends' love of life, their family, their friends, their spouse, their children, their work, their community..........I started to become humbly aware of the infinity of love

~ ~ ~ ~

I came to the conclusion that the quatrain above was excellent – excellent in using an incredibly tiny part of my brain – likely a bit of reptilian brain provoking a bit of my cerebrum......excellent in helping me realize there is

so much love so many loves so many ways to love....physical mental spiritual platonic sensual intellectual.......being in the presence of – knowing – being grateful for all the lovers gracing the world......the languages of love love's expression love's reach love's grace ….....the art artistry ability of love's creative puissance of loving in ways people have always loved as well as loving in ways no human being has ever before loved..............to love those who hate us to love those who do us harm to love those whom we don't want to love......to love actively thoughtfully caringly.....to love unequivocally....do I ask if it is impossible to love everyone unequivocally, do I ask if it is absurd to even consider loving everyone unequivocally ........or do I ask how absurdly impossible it is to live without loving everyone unequivocally ….............. …........for now I am in the heart of the quandary: Is it the PEACEFUL INSANITY OF LOVE or the INSANE PEACE OF LOVE? …

Mid Summer Heartland Nature

An Aesthetic Flurry of Rushing & Bursting ~ Fauna + Flora Flow Spectacularly! I am totally amazed! Birds darting... brown, black, blue, red, yellow, gray, and various combos thereof along with sizes from specks to a huge sweeping red tailed hawks ~ chipmunks, squirrels, and rabbits rushing back and forth festively frolicking – yes, I just saw one young rabbit nearly complete a somersault in its jubilation. Bees, cicada killer wasps, and tiny creatures beyond the ability of my word processor and FB post to describe. This being the third day after passing MID-SUMMER, with a few leaves starting to turn, and the energy of the changing seasons being fed by days of thunderstorms I think all the creatures of the NORTH GARDEN SANCTUARY are purely being fully alive......I am humbled and grateful. And aha! I didn't think I could get any decent photo of even photo of this magnificent show to post, but because there was just such a constant display of active creatures I just randomly held my camera out the door and snapped a photo. When I looked at it – SURE ENOUGH I had caught a blue and white bird streaking across the garden! And this is a CALM – almost intermission – in today's performance! What JOY!!!...... dziękuję, gracias, 谢谢, ringrazio hanno, है धन्यवाद, remercier avoir, thank you, أشكر ديك ...
