Laura, any possibility I could get permission to use your photo of the dun horse and man above, I believe it was taken in Guatamala for The Brooke organization? I have a mailing list of about 2000 and would like to include it in the newsletter I’m sending out Saturday, January 21, 2012.

Thank you.

Popol Vuh has been on my list of books to read for a long time. Looking forward to reading it.

I promise I’m reorganizing to dedicate more time to the blog. I’ve already missed sharing so much… kind of turns my stomach thinking I haven’t written about special moments that I’ve experienced lately. And, I feel I’ve missed the window for sharing them. I must make writing a priority again…

Cool story…I just finished the Popol Vuh…Leave it to Burroughs to once again point the way down fascinating corridors of inquiry. Hard to believe what’s happened to this once-mighty kingdom.

Maybe it’s in the blood…and yet this feeling gnaws at him, this sense of something not being fed by his life. He wants beauty, color, form, something that whispers magic to him.

There is only one thing I dread: not to be worthy of my sufferings.

Observations worth highlighting to share with you on this, most idle of evenings, even if they have many miles to cross, mountain to climb, valleys to plunge and deserts to thirst from.

Looks like the website is getting a reboot after all, though it’s loading slower it seems. Like the new logo.

I knew this passage felt familiar, reminded me of something… The cool draft through the window screen today was just what my overcast mind needed to glimpse it – Edna Pontellier from Chopin’s The Awakening.
She swam twice in the Gulf, both defining experiences: the first resurrected her soul; the second affected her demise at novel’s end. Look at how closely your post relates to Chopin’s passage below:

“The voice of the sea is seductive; never ceasing, whispering, clearing, murmuring, inviting the soul to wander for a spell in the abysses of solitude; to lose itself in mazes of inward contemplation. The voice of the sea speaks to the soul. The touch of the sea is sensuous, enfolding the body in its soft, close embrace.”
