Lightly Child, Lightly.

Emotions are high…this morning. It is a beautiful morning here. Unseasonably warm. The chickens are happy. The bees are happy. They do their chicken and bee jobs. I wrote last night that the work does not change. Temperance, magnanimity, prudence. Keep going.

  • Post Title & Inspiration: Aldous Huxley: “It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.

  1. The sun rises as its own affirmation. We’re here, the sun is here, the air is clear. Sometimes that’s all one needs to keep going

  2. jumped over to RBA’s account. Sound guy, great messages. Couldn’t find (I was in the dentist’s waiting room….) ‘that’ post though. Can say he’s right… just wanted to know too what TL means.

      1. just wanted to inform you (and others) that my (empty) insta account got shut down again (for about the 10th time) for ‘violation’ of some kind I don’t even know. It’s getting obvious that even those innocent accounts are being followed and my ‘broken heart’ as response to some of my few posters were considered as a violation. I give up….

  3. Hi DK! I just came back from a work trip to NYC. Every time I walk near the Grand Central my thoughts go to your “waking” writings. I loved them. And I started observing what I saw and thought what you would write 🙂 So I came to check on your blog and found a great photographer! Wow! Wonderful. Happy Holidays, David & family!

    1. Helen! What a wonderful surprise! Thank you for dropping by and saying hello. And I appreciate the kind words. Hope you are doing well. Happy Holidays to you too!
