Through My Eyes
Sunday October 3
(We continue reading of Perelandra!)
" 'When it comes to ungrounded, raw, emotional energy released by humans, nature functions in the role of absorber. Even though emotional energy is invisible, it is no less tangible in its effect on the world of form than insects, heavy rain, or drought.'
The reason for Perelandra's success with insects became clearer as Machaelle headed for a shaded outdoor table, where some colling herb tea sweated slightly in the breeze. ' Since the beginning of my adventure, I have tithed ten percent of the garden back to nature, just on general principle. To be frank, I don't believe I have ever fully been taken up on that tithing. What I've observed is that where animal and plant interface it is with the softest of touches.' "
( Gentleness and generosity results in the same response from the natural world! ) 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 working a bit more on the weaving which with us working two as one is going quite well. I worked a bit more with the grapevine bark continuing to practice weaving it into loops. After that I headed up to the Grove to pick wild grapes that are growing on the fence near the lower gate in great abundance! After that I rested by your Medlar tree for a bit. A magnificent praying mantis was among it's branches again! After that I wandered about taking pictures and doing small tasks here and there before retuning to our studio to work on our a land of Tibet. I'm going to work in our studio tomorrow and in the Grove. Working two as one we'll get a lot done! I'll add our wildflowers then put this up a bit early 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!) .
