Through My Eyes
Sunday November 21
(We continue reading of Perelandra!)
" ' It was the same with my roses,' Machaelle added. 'The beetles would take one or two flowers on a bush and leave the other ten for me. After watching this process year after year, I have been able to change my attitude about bugs from focusing on what they attack, or weaken, or damage, or destroy, to focusing on the gift each insect offers to the countless other members of the garden.
' This, in turn, has allowed me to see the insects' right to be part of the plant kingdom. It may sound odd, I'm sure, but I see the insects as not only an integral part of the environment, but also part of the garden crops. I encourage their health and vibrancy as I would anything else in the garden."
( A more shamanic view of things! ) I promise to add more tomorrow...

( Tahshi Deleh, gentle beautiful one! Kehrahng kusu debo yinpeh? I began the day in our studio spinning for you then headed up gang rinpoche ngah-tso gi to wander about taking pictures, work on the fence a bit, and do small chores here and there. After restiing by your Medlar tree as usual I headed to our studio to work on our a land of Tibet. Two as one we've fixed a few more mistakes on the pages as usual. I'll add our wildflowers then put this up for now so we can rest.
And so, as always we'll continue two as one on to tomorrow
my one gentle beautiful patient dream bright
long dark mane in sunlight
so for now I bid goodnight...Simjah Nahngo! )
( please see my spinning for you!) .
