&lt;br /&gt;
The energies are evolving and look less tumultuous for 2018, with much healing in store.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;In support of that, I present to you the&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Language of Love Calendar&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;2018&lt;/b&gt;.&amp;nbsp; This year each calendar will be &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;infused with healing energy&lt;/b&gt; (yes, that’s possible) which it will carry into your home or workplace.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;This energy will be available to you each day of the year through its images, as you enjoy, contemplate, meditate or gaze upon them.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Puerto Rico is featured in September, with the intent of sending restorative energy their way, particularly during that (hurricane Maria) anniversary month. (I will also be making a monetary donation to PR recovery for every calendar purchased.)&lt;br /&gt;

I invite you to infuse your 2018 with Love&lt;b&gt;!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I am very pleased to announce the &lt;b&gt;10th Anniversary calendar&lt;/b&gt;!&amp;nbsp; And also to share that in celebration and gratitude for ten inspiring and fulfilling years traversing Love’s Freeway--in excellent company--I am offering a &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;free gift&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;* with every order!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This calendar’s cover image reflects my vision for 2017:&amp;nbsp; We global citizens may come in all shapes, sizes and colors, with varying leanings, but we share one boat, and we’re in this boat together.&amp;nbsp; Let&#39;s make it a successful, fruitful and peaceful passage.&amp;nbsp; More LOVE will surely help keep us afloat!&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;I was already indoors, but that glimpse pulled me back outdoors.&amp;nbsp; I took two steps backward to take in the beauty full on, and that changed my direction.&amp;nbsp; Wherever&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;I had been going was instantly usurped by this moment of pause, and thoughts of the camera.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Simple beauty captures and inspires me.&amp;nbsp; What possesses me to grab a camera to record this beauty I still do not know, but something does possess me.&amp;nbsp; And then, if I&#39;m &quot;lucky,&quot; there it is.&amp;nbsp; An imprint, a likeness--more than a likeness:&amp;nbsp; the life force of the &quot;thing&quot; itself--is preserved in time.&amp;nbsp; My arrangement: the ribbons and the fresh, found greens and berries in the rescued half basket  (a cemetery discard) were a gift.&amp;nbsp; The snow was a gift.&amp;nbsp; The camera is a gift.&amp;nbsp; The leap in the heart:&amp;nbsp; what a gift.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;May you be blessed with many such gifts throughout this magical season.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;© Kathryn Deputat&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://lovesfreeway.blogspot.com/feeds/8429715656722338302/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/33731071/8429715656722338302' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/33731071/posts/default/8429715656722338302'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/33731071/posts/default/8429715656722338302'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://lovesfreeway.blogspot.com/2014/12/i-was-rushing-as-i-recall.html' title='Simple Gifts'/><author><name>Kathryn Deputat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05295985675906316727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi78wcm-8uVHzQv-bRTD3jB4_Xhhg6lWR3me3VwPk6V0ETIRT074Bkjsak6yqIaGxsVJa5LztMlLgtrbeUWIlP1GDPBSkrGWEuNvjboKcg1CeEcv1RDoFguQaizyuCMpdY/s113/IMG_0916.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpDhrEC8iXfowPkC0i2OQtIhfOhHD2hbMaVwU26yARYxtkn4Wa_HYOLolDQ5Ld4W2Fr3J4KEWeGwhNMoPyAIgbqo5Re_snurfAaJNDHl1pegycYoQ2_W7I8MAtXuy7RTx5pzeohw/s72-c/December~www.lovesfreeway.com.JPG" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33731071.post-7383601463628839157</id><published>2014-11-25T13:14:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2014-11-28T10:17:45.078-05:00</updated><title type='text'>It&#39;s Calendar Time!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I am pleased to announce the new Love’s Freeway calendar! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Creating this  calendar each year is an  involved process that  takes a lot of time, trying for example to balance tone,  color, and content across the months.&amp;nbsp;  Every year I am surprised to find  some of my  favorite photos  never make it onto its pages.&amp;nbsp; Others grab my eye right away, find their place on the page, and stay put throughout the process.&amp;nbsp; This year I needed the help of my dowsing rods to make a couple of final choices.&amp;nbsp; In any event, the process is complete!&amp;nbsp; It&#39;s ready, it&#39;s lovely--and I would love for you to have one, to share the ride along Love&#39;s Freeway every step of the way in 2015.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I wrote &lt;a href=&quot;http://lovesfreeway.blogspot.com/2013/11/the-last-bouquet.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;the story&lt;/a&gt; of this year&#39;s November calendar image &lt;a href=&quot;http://lovesfreeway.blogspot.com/2013/11/the-last-bouquet.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;a year ago&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; I did so before I had the thought to write these for each of the 2014 calendar images.&amp;nbsp; Or maybe doing so gave me the idea to write the others, I don&#39;t remember.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;But here it is, here we are again dancing the dance between warm and cold.&amp;nbsp; One day the doors and windows are open,  the potted plants are back outdoors soaking up sun and rain, and I&#39;m hearing happy, spring sounds from the birds.&amp;nbsp; The next day or so, it&#39;s twenty-something farenheit by 2 a.m.--or snowing (in the case of last Sunday)--and I&#39;m scurrying to cover or drag them all in once again, those In-Betweens (not houseplants, not winter hardy) who will winter indoors in a cold, bright room.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;The in-ground dwellers are another story.

Not to hold on, but it makes for a very long winter when we (humans, moths, bees) lose the fragrances, color and company of the flowers in October, or even&amp;nbsp;early November.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still, facts are facts: the dahlias will go. The roses will go. The cosmos will go--probably last of all. Which amazes me. These, the seemingly wispiest of all the garden&#39;s flowers and leaves, somehow withstand the back and forth, the 20s one night and the 50-something the next. I don&#39;t know how they do it, but I&#39;m so glad they do. They&#39;re my heroes of the moment for that. Mighty ones, they inspire me with their fortitude:&amp;nbsp; passionate, bright, cheerful to the end. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;When I&#39;m traveling, it&#39;s truly enough for me just to &lt;i&gt;be&lt;/i&gt; in a place in this world that&#39;s new to me.&amp;nbsp; There is discovery at every turn, something refreshing to the eyes--to all the senses. I am not compelled to hit the sights, to follow well-worn tracks.&amp;nbsp; I wander, and find treasure at every turn.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Like M&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;ullaghmore, Ireland, for example, which I happened upon last September. I&#39;d taken the coastal route north toward Donegal, and turned out onto a peninsula at about Cliffony or so--I think to stay as close as I could to the &quot;flaggy shore.&quot;&amp;nbsp; It&#39;s Seamus Heaney who put the bee in my bonnet to take such a drive:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote class=&quot;tr_bq&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;And some time make the time to drive out west&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Into County Clare, along the Flaggy Shore,&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;In September or October, when the wind&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;And the light are working off each other...&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;excerpted from Postscript, in THE SPIRIT LEVEL &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;This was Sligo, not Clare, but no matter:&amp;nbsp; I did come, I did &quot;make the time to drive out west.&quot;&amp;nbsp;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I had  no reason to be in Mullaghmore.&amp;nbsp; But way leads on to way:&amp;nbsp; the road  brought me there for a relative speck of time and gave me&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt; treasure:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt; yellow-mustard door, white cat, blue pots, reflected sea and sky.&amp;nbsp; It gave me delight I delight to share
with you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;September:  it&#39;s back to school time. Not for me, but for the rest of the world, or so it feels. Things get really quiet pretty much overnight where I live come September.&amp;nbsp; Here in the Cold North, we begin to draw in, begin gradually to move from outside to inside--literally and figuratively.&amp;nbsp; Nature is winding down, too.&amp;nbsp; We can feel the retreat.&amp;nbsp; The climax of the growing season has definitely passed.&amp;nbsp; We&#39;re in the denouement, with the autumnal equinox fast approaching.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&quot;Summer is over.&quot;&amp;nbsp; That&#39;s what I thought when I saw my neighbos&#39; cafe table and chairs &quot;folded up&quot; together on their lawn--spotlit theatrically no less--in the final glow of an autumn day&#39;s light.&amp;nbsp; &quot;Party&#39;s over.&amp;nbsp; Time to get to work.&quot;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;So when you call your friend and ask &quot;where are you?&quot; and he names a beautiful, coastal island--Martha&#39;s Vineyard in this case--say what you&#39;re thinking.&amp;nbsp; Tell him, &quot;Lucky guy!&amp;nbsp; Wouldn&#39;t I love to be on the Vineyard right now.&quot;&amp;nbsp; Because the next thing you know, he&#39;ll be asking you to come, to join him for his weekly Wednesday working rounds.&amp;nbsp; You&#39;ll be picking a Wednesday and before you know it, you&#39;ll be waking up at dawn in his baby daughter&#39;s room to get on the road, to make the first ferry over.&amp;nbsp; Then you&#39;ll be bopping from chef to chef across that pristine, treasured island trading sharp knives for dull ones--on a personal tour, by the way, in the process--in the excellent company of your best buddy, snapping photos all the way.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;In this instance, the difference between &quot;same old same old&quot; and atmospheric was a string of Chinese lanterns that caught my eye in the Garden Shop section of Home Depot.&amp;nbsp; I have my new(ish) neighbors Wes and Lourey (who had strung some pale blue ones across their porch opposite me) to thank for the inspiration to buy, to hang them--and myself to thank for the flair of execution.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Trying to find a fitting place for a single string of 10 paper lanterns on a 10 x 6 foot porch made me wish I&#39;d bought two.&amp;nbsp; There&#39;s a fine line between cute and tacky, and I was crossing it with any location or arrangement I tried.&amp;nbsp; Then I had a vision.&amp;nbsp; I remembered the large, forked limb that had fallen in the yard.&amp;nbsp; I hadn&#39;t gotten around to snapping it into burnable lengths yet, thankfully.&amp;nbsp; It made the perfect &quot;tree&quot; to wind the lights around.&amp;nbsp; That and a woven planter basket for its base made the whole thing belong--made it charming, even.&amp;nbsp; So now, in what was once a dark corner, there is an array of colored lights:&amp;nbsp; inviting, festive, fun.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;When I followed the urge to photograph my &quot;sculpture,&quot; I had similar trouble finding, in this case, an angle that worked.&amp;nbsp; Until, that is, I got the idea to get under the &quot;tree&quot; and look up!&amp;nbsp; Spirals.&amp;nbsp; All of life is spirals.&amp;nbsp; No wonder this treatment worked.&amp;nbsp; And do these lanterns ever speak &quot;sweet summer nights&quot; to me, even without any breeze to sway them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;table cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;So this is where all the magic happens&lt;/i&gt;, I thought as I walked the grounds with Didi.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxwEgfDYSwwgrhYLdfL0BRVpOt8ZkTMWD-7u27VHAqV3Kz_mCng6WlIXWjxpvTpMZ0OmrpmNG47w8g8Sc76expb4wluIW97AIYUcKDAQh3a7kNAoSN2MDjnYPCsZHwc0JCchxZww/s1600/japanese+quince,+Eva%27s+%7E+%28c%29+Kathryn+Deputat+for+Love%27s+Freeway.jpg&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxwEgfDYSwwgrhYLdfL0BRVpOt8ZkTMWD-7u27VHAqV3Kz_mCng6WlIXWjxpvTpMZ0OmrpmNG47w8g8Sc76expb4wluIW97AIYUcKDAQh3a7kNAoSN2MDjnYPCsZHwc0JCchxZww/s1600/japanese+quince,+Eva&#39;s+~+(c)+Kathryn+Deputat+for+Love&#39;s+Freeway.jpg&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; width=&quot;240&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Magic and&amp;nbsp;lots of hard work.&amp;nbsp; Eva&#39;s herbs and greens and flowers supply the choosiest of chefs in the Boston area and beyond--chefs like Didi, and like Odessa Piper whom I had the pleasure of meeting over the plucking of flowers&amp;nbsp;and herbs and greens for the evening meal.&amp;nbsp; It is a certain sort of gentle and organic talking and getting to know that happens in the garden rows while harvesting like this, I discovered.&amp;nbsp; Not chatting, not conversation, but something in between:&amp;nbsp; a mirror of the&amp;nbsp;flow, the natural unfolding that is the living food sprung from the earth right before our eyes, hands, knees, no doubt.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Eva&#39;s tiny galley kitchen, smaller than some closets I&#39;ve seen, was a model of efficiency and the efficacious use of space and resources--of &quot;nothing wasted,&quot; in two words:&amp;nbsp; not time, not space, not food or its scraps or remainders.&amp;nbsp; Even chicken bones were composted.&amp;nbsp; Odessa cooked for us come morning:&amp;nbsp; breakfast frittata, with a flourish.&amp;nbsp; She needed strawberry plant photos and a head shot for her next book, and I tried some for her.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Ben showed me the land  behind the tulip beds where Eva would let him coop and run chickens in exchange for fresh,  organic eggs from happy hens.&amp;nbsp; This&lt;/span&gt; lovely, organic give and take is a way of life at Eva&#39;s farm, to the benefit and sustenance of all concerned. &lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;If it weren&#39;t for Eliza, I never would have met the sheep on the clifftop over Keem Bay.&amp;nbsp; Neither would I have experienced the striking presence of absence, exploring the Deserted Village at Slievemore, or discovered the Holy Well in the cemetery alongside it.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;And if it weren&#39;t for the fellow crossing the street along the Mall by the River Carrow Beg who pointed me there, I mightn&#39;t have found the oh-so comfy and welcoming Old Mill Hostel in Westport, or started that friendly chat in the kitchen thus making a bit of a pal of Liza, the teacher from Achill who stays there on the mainland as errands require it.&amp;nbsp; I wouldn&#39;t have known of Eliza or her school or her Island of Achill at all, nor ventured onto it.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; And I would never have encountered Westport, Co. Mayo, had I not lingered in Donegal, then Co. Clare and run out of time and steam and sunlight for driving onward toward Killarney that Wednesday.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I could keep on tracing backward, encounter to &quot;chance&quot; encounter, ad infinitum no doubt.&amp;nbsp; Were it not for Anne, I&#39;d have never found Ireland to begin with, never begun that love story.&amp;nbsp; And had &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.landmarkworldwide.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Landmark&lt;/a&gt; not led me to Anne, and Gerry and Marta not led me to Landmark...:&amp;nbsp; on and on it goes.&lt;/span&gt;
