Sometimes life presents something which we can recognize and feel part of. often whatever it is can be very simple and straight forward. just a matter of being there without any idea of what may present. recognition of something going on but just going with it, allowing it to unfold.

In such a way the recognition comes on slowly, almost dreamlike. an example of being in the moment, of simply being mindful of what is unfolding without putting emphasis on anything other than one’s own awareness.

So on this day it had been raining for sometime in the afternoon, the sky filled with big clumps of rain bearing cloud and when it rained it was quite heavy. eventually the rain cleared and what remained was a heavy sky with a narrow band of clear sky on the horizon. as the sun moved toward the horizon an incredible light revealed itself in stages; sharp yet subdued, with deepening shadows and subtle highlights.

It’s a window, a glimpse lasting no more than twenty minutes, changing all the while until finally the light is gone. there is something about this time of day I cannot explain. I have never been one for early morning. the best part though is that all this is free. It also engenders a free spirit. this cannot be bought for love or money. this is something our political masters will never understand.
